How to Make Koreans Furious: The Identity of a Chef Boiling Ramyeon

Online communities have been buzzing over an unconventional ramyeon recipe.

The video, titled "A Ramyeon Recipe That Would Infuriate Koreans," features someone introducing themselves as an Italian chef who deliberately cooks soup-based ramyeon, bibimyeon, and jajang ramyeon in entirely wrong ways.

Claiming that Korean ramyeon is too spicy, the chef uses only half of the seasoning packet while pouring in plenty of water.

When cooking Neoguri, the chef describes the kelp—meant to enhance the broth—as "paper" and fishes it out, before cracking in multiple eggs.

For bibimyeon, the noodles are mixed with the sauce while still hot without being rinsed in cold water. For jajang ramyeon, the noodles and seasoning are boiled together, and then all the soup is poured out before eating it with satisfaction.

Netizens reacted with amusement and disbelief, leaving comments such as, "They really know what triggers Koreans," and, "Now I finally understand how Italians feel."

It turned out that the video was a promotional clip created for the Gumi Ramyeon Festival to draw attention by deliberately showing bizarre cooking methods.
