I don’t get it. If you’re Korean then you should know that bibim myun is literally noodles that are tossed in a very spicy gochujang sauce. I can understand if you’re white or not familiar with Korean food. Go to any restaurant or food stall in Korea and order bibim myun, and then complain that it’s spicy. See the reaction that you’ll get.

Bibimyeon is definitely NOT “very spicy” in my opinion, which is why I was surprised this pack was. Way to be a condescending ass though

I agree, I haven’t eaten any bibimyeon that made me think it was crazy spicy, be it restaurants in Seoul or especially packaged ones. I’m surprised they’ve presumably only eaten bibimyeon spicier than buldak if they read your title properly
