Gonghwachun (Korean: 공화춘; Hanja: 共和春) was a historic restaurant specializing in Korean Chinese cuisine in Incheon Chinatown, South Korea. It first opened some time between 1905 and 1908, and is considered the first restaurant to serve the dish jajangmyeon in Korea. It closed in 1983. Its original building was made a Registered Cultural Heritage of South Korea in 2006. In 2012, a Jajangmyeon Museum was established in the building. There is a modern South Korean restaurant franchise under the same name that was created in 2004, that claims descendency from the original. Its authenticity is disputed by descendents of the founders of the original restaurant. Some descendants of the founders operate a nearby restaurant called Sinseung Banjeom.
