Unique Foods in South Korea You should try!!

I have traveled to many countries, but there has never been a country that eats as many different foods as Korea. If you want to travel to Korea, make sure to eat foods that you could not eat anywhere else. Some foods may be a little disgusting for the first time, but if you put them in your mouth, you will change your mind.

1. Barbecued Intestines (Gob-chang)

There are more countries that eat tripe than expected.
However, there is no country in the world where people barbecue and eat directly on a table like this. Koreans eat a variety of entrails, which may be a bit creepy, but they are one of the must-have foods. Also, Korean use a variety of recipes using one ingredient. The difference between salted Intestines and seasoned Intestines is huge. I recommend that you try both.

2. Silkworm chrysalis (Bundaegi)

It is one of the traditional street foods of Korea.
These days, I often eat insects, but Korea has been enjoying eating them for a long time.
If you see this being boiled in a market or something, don't pass and make sure you buy it. It is cheap to sell in a paper cup and warms your body. It is good for your body because it is good for eating protein.
These days, there are also canned goods, so many foreigners are challenging them.

3. Live Octopus (Sannakji)

It is one of the most popular foods in YouTube. A lot of YouTube is filming a challenging video. For your information, the octopus in the picture is moving alive. The octopus goes into your mouth and moves until it falls down your throat. You may feel a little creepy, but you can have a new experience.

4. Live Spoon Worms (Gaebull)

Spoon worm is one of the marine animals. You can't imagine what an animal is from this picture, can you? In Korea, we eat a variety of marine animals, one of them.
Cut it into pieces and dip it in the spice sauce. Especially, it's one of the best foods for drinking. It's a bit creepy, but it's good for your body, so make sure.

5. Thornback (Hong-u)

Thornback is the food that many Koreans hate. It's similar to raw fish in the picture, but the smell of red fish is significant because it's frozen and eaten fish. You may feel rejected because of the pungent smell, but those who like it love it.




In this post, I will explain only this much, and then I will explain more various foods.
