Many fans may remember that Jin opened the נαραиese restaurant Ossu Seiromushi with his older brother, Kim Seok-jung, in 2018. The restaurant specializes in seiro-mushi, a traditional נαραиese steaming мєтнod that combines thinly sliced beef and pork with vegetables, mushrooms, and eggs, all delicately seasoned with ingre∂ιєnts such as soy sauce, sake, and mirin.

Originally located in Seoul’s Songpa District, the restaurant later moved to the basement level (B1) of the Yuhwa Securities Building in Yeongdeungpo District in 2025. Last year, Kim Seok-jung drew attention when he revealed on KBS2’s variety show The Boss Has Donkey Ears that the business generated approximately 300 million won (around $198,000) in monthly revenue. Over the years, the restaurant welcomed numerous celebrities and ARMYs, many of whom praised its menu.

Unfortunately, despite its popularity, the restaurant announced its closure at the end of March this year. The news left many fans disappointed, as Ossu Seiromushi was not only a beloved dining destination but also a joint business venture that the two brothers had put considerable effort into building. Fans, however, also expressed understanding of the challenges the business had been facing.

Notably, just six months after the נαραиese restaurant closed, Jin’s older brother appears to have embarked on a new business venture: a premium fresh fruit and beverage store.

Named Mani Dalo Seolleung, the store opened in late September in Seoul’s Gangnam District. Its spacious interior features plenty of greenery and a seating area for customers, and it operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The store primarily offers premium fresh fruit in various forms, including pre-cut selections, mixed fruit boxes, and whole fruits sold individually or in bulk. It also serves a wide range of beverages, from fresh fruit juices and coffee to ade drinks, soda, smoothies, shaved ice, and various snacks.

Since its opening, the store has received considerable support from both fans and celebrities in the entertainment industry.

In a YouTube vlog posted in late October this year, comedian Jung Jun Ha visited the store, tried its watermelon juice and avocado coffee, and enthusiastically introduced the business to help promote it. Before leaving, he even decided to purchase a box of fresh mangoes worth 1 million won for his son, Roha, leaving many netizens impressed.

Mani Dalo Seolleung has also welcomed numerous ARMYs since opening. Fans have shared photos, videos, and positive reviews of the beverages online. They have also reminded one another that Mani Dalo is a franchise brand with multiple locations, so those wishing to visit should make sure to look for the Seolleung branch operated by Jin’s older brother.

As images and videos of the new store continue to circulate, many fans have been sending their best wishes, hoping Kim Seok-jung’s latest business venture will continue to grow and enjoy great success:
