Joomak Banjum was a Korean[2] restaurant in New York City. Eater New York has described Joomak Banjum as "a modern Korean spot with occasional Chinese flair".[3] The restaurant had received a Michelin star.[4] The restaurant closed on February 18, 2024, due to “skyrocketing” rent increases[5] with one of the former owner Sarah Kang opening up a "Korean Royal Court Cuisine" restaurant called Beut in the same space and Jiho Kim looking for another space to open a "2.0" version of the restaurant.
