Lately, I've been eating Korean instant noodles again. I've only tried these two brands:

Samyang's "Samyang Ramen"

[image loading]


Nong Shim's "Shin Ramen"

[image loading]



Many of you are probably familiar with the first one, due to the commercials during Proleague broadcasts:



Idol hype aside, I found that Samyang Ramen tastes pretty bland and oily, compared to Shin Ramen, which does taste better but a little too spicy (using the entire soup base = not a good idea).

Here's one of Shin to make it even (idol-less and lots of slurping):



Which do you prefer? If you eat neither of these, is there another brand (that is spicy) that you recommend?

Pretty much my favorite. This may be because I have an addiction to garlic/spring onion, however.

Lol "Shim" ramyun is clearly way to go. Where do you think the Stim from Starcraft originated from?

Shiiiiin Ramyuuuun. These noodles are, ah, how do they call it, The Shit? Sometimes I throw in sliced beef franks, eggs, peanuts, vegetables, whatever in there. It's all good.

Shim is sorta correct cuz the company is Nong Shim

Not sure what you mean, but it's just instant ramen like Shin/Samyang.

Which brand?

Back then, my family only bought the Japanese Nissin noodles, chicken flavor.
