How a Viral "Ramen-Ruining" Video Enraged Korean Netizens

Heard about an online uproar over a bizarre ramen recipe?

Yes, it is a video titled "A Ramen Recipe That Will Infuriate Koreans."

In the video, a participant who introduces himself as an Italian chef purposely cooks broth ramen, bibimmyeon, and jjajang ramen in absurdly wrong ways.

Complaining that Korean ramen is too spicy, he uses only half of the seasoning packet and pours plenty of water.

He introduces the kelp included in Neoguri ramen as "paper" used to flavor the broth before taking it out, and cracks in multiple eggs.

For bibimmyeon, he mixes the sauce into the hot noodles without rinsing them in cold water. For jjajang ramen, he boils the noodles and seasoning together, pours out the remaining broth, and eats it with satisfaction.

Netizens reacted with a mix of disbelief and amusement, commenting, "He really knows what triggers Koreans" and "Now I finally understand how Italians feel."

It turns out that this video was a promotional clip created by the Gumi Ramen Festival to draw attention by intentionally showing incorrect cooking methods.
