get ddak dori tang (spicy chicken stew)
galbi/bulgogi is the foreigner version of overly sweet kbbq.
get the non-marinated meats like saen gyup sal (beef) and cha dohl beh gi (pork).
sam gyup sal isn't beef, it's pork.
But its hellsa good.
A nice foreigner friendly food might be Soon Doo Boo; which is like soft tofu soup. The name might sound gross, but it's really good.
Also, as long as you don't act like a total dick / get wasted and rip off your shirt, you'll be fine.
EDIT: also, concerning the side dishes, you can just ask the waiters for a refill.

Why is Yuk Gae Jang not foreigner friendly? Too hot? I can eat pretty hot... in like habanero pepper hot.

Appetizer: -(해물)파전 (seafood pajun)
-군만두 (fried potstickers)
-김밥 (imo 참치김밥 [tuna kimbap] is the best)
Side Dish: -라볶기 (spicy, has rice cake, fish cake, ramen noodles, hardboiled egg)
-잡채 (may be included in 반찬)
-김치재육볶음 (kimchi and pork dish grilled with onions)
Main Dish: it depends on if you want soup-type stuff or bbq soupish stuff: -순두부찌개 (tofu soup, many variations on this)
-설렁탕 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seolleongtang
-갈비탕 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galbitang
-된장찌개 (soybean paste base, vegetables, and tofu)
-김치찌개 (kimchi base, meat, tofu, vegetables. i wouldn't get this at restaurants though, because usually they use old/bad kimchi in this)
-물냉면 (cold noodles, very tasty. goes well with meat)

meat dishes (you know what all these look like): -갈비 -불고기 (both beef/pork) -삼겹살

I mean obviously I'll also get that (and update this blog with pics..^^) but I don't think the food at your place is bad..? all i get is takeout and the occasional fail-cooking or the dinner with relatives and it's always the same stuff
the pictures on top of me make me hungry even though i just ate =/ edit : fixed quotes

Wow LosingID8 .. you are amazing, thanks so much. Hey guys you are all so amazing, now I'm totally confused what I should eat tomorrow... (like for 2 persons... -___- I for myself would like to have pajeon (not haemul-jeon because I don't like seafood too much)... and Galbi/Samgyeopsal and a side dish to that.. or something..

|

Pajun is the best food ever made. I can eat that for days. Same with Seolleongtang.
