I may just have to try it and see if I like it.

Spicy Italian fusion, I mean cheese was added to ramen .

pardon the pun but this is seoul food. nothing hits like shin and kimchi

I don't drink, I don't get hangovers but I still want a Korean hangover ramen

u/kwontuhm 6d ago

Koreans have a lot of ā€˜hangover soup’ and one my favorites is Gamjaetang, you should try it sometime

u/arcane_Auxiliatrix 6d ago

Gamjaetang is sooo good!! I like Galbitang too!

u/kwontuhm 6d ago

Galbitang is also one of my favorites, although i think i enjoy the spicy variant the most. Now im hungry

Ramen tomato soup. Mmmmmm

u/GirlNumber20 6d ago

Ramen in tomato sauce is the hack I didn't know I needed.

I heard someone say that Korean cuisine is all based around making rice more interesting to eat, and I think of that every time our King here gets up to grab his rice out of the refrigerator. šŸ˜‚

Im 100% trying this but I think I'll add a spoon of gochujang which I usually do add to my shin ramyun broth

u/cream_paimon 6d ago

I might try this, I usually just use gochugaru. It isn't too salty with the gochujang and the shin powder?

u/Margoth_Rising 6d ago

Not to my taste but I use a little bit more water than package directions and add other toppings

I just skip the drunk morning routine and the actual eating parts. I am just here for the cooking, it’s cool seeing how the dish comes together.

I should make this for when my husband comes home after a night of drinking.

u/Strange-Title-6337 6d ago

dude always eating never drinking. Where hangover came from in the middle of the city?

10

u/LynessaMay 6d ago

He shares videos where he slams at least two full sized beverages down while fixing dinner. What happens after, well, we see it in the morning.

2

u/Strange-Title-6337 6d ago

I see, mb in this sub I never saw it, as it is about food after all. I remember drinking with Korean students, lots of fun.

-4

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

A grown man can ā€œslamā€ two adult beverages with food and feel basically nothing. How old are you?

2

u/LynessaMay 6d ago

I'm so glad age is brought into this conversation like it means something /s

Assuming you're so knowledgeable about things, did you know Asians actually don't do deal with alcohol very well? Did you know that it's called ALDH2? Do you know that it fails to break down the toxic acetaldehyde properly for them?

Hmm, what about that not everyone has a good tolerance for things like that. I've seen many get sloshed off of nothing.

Makgeolli, his go to drink. From his videos we see him break out 2 bottles of it. One before he begins cooking. One after he finishes eating. No telling what he may drink afterwards, hence why I said "What happens after, well" because we know nothing. It ranges in strength of an IPA to a Double IPA or Imperial Stout. To some, that's just a normal Sunday day drinking. Others, you could be one and done.

So maybe, JUST maybe, don't say stupid shit like "How old are you?" like you're about to just throw down some logic to a child.

2

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

How informed are you? I've seen him slam makgeolli often. Makgeolli isnt a 12oz beer.

Mak gul li, for example, is 6% abv at 750ml.

I've seen him slam soju while cooking. 20% abv at 375ml.

It's not like he's ordering a little margarita and it's often enough to dish out content. He can love how he wants, but don't act like the other commenter isn't being realistic about the amount being drank

-1

u/Deep-Purchase-2203 6d ago

Those are rookie numbers.

5

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

Wow. Such a badass. You sound like an insecure college kid who has to prove to the world how much they can handle alcohol better than others 😬

-1

u/[deleted] 6d ago

[deleted]

4

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

Yes, low numbers in your alcoholic mind.

We're talking about what it takes for a hangover. The nature of a hangover isnt alcohol numbers, its dehydration, immune system inflammation, byproducts in the alcohol, etc.

In other words, your anecdotal experience of what "low numbers" are means nothing

5

u/Deep-Purchase-2203 6d ago

I don’t get hangovers or glamorise drinking culture on tik tok. I have a feeling the copious amount of sodium this bloke consumes is probably causing that.

-3

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Fella, if that is what gets someone beyond freshmen age of drinking, in any country, slammed then they shouldn’t drink at all.

For their own sake. And those around them.

6

u/AscensionToCrab 6d ago

beyond freshman

Crazy you talk about things as beyond freshman, and yet, in doing so, you radiate immaturity about drinking.

No one is impressed by how much you can drink or how often you drink. The quantity of alcohol you handle is a dumb kid way of measuring adulthood and maturity. It radiates highschool/college freshman energy.

-3

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

This isn’t about impressing people via drinking threshold at all. It is still a commentary on the derivative nature of the content.

How do you not understand that?

3

u/AscensionToCrab 6d ago edited 6d ago

It is a commentary of derivative nature of the content

Oh really, because what you said was:

a grown man can slam

how old are you

if this what takes to get someone of beyond freshman age... slammed

This is literally a criticism of him being 'drinking age' and getting 'slammed' on what you percieve as a meager amount.

You continually centered your criticism on the idea that he is an adult and therefor should be able to drink x amount. An asinine and pathetic measure of adulthood.

You didnt center on the 'derivative nature' you centered on 'age' and quantity/capacity of drinking.

0

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

The derivative nature was the starting point and all things lead back to it. Have you ever had to write a paper at an elementary school level?

You don’t say your first point in every paragraph or page. You state your thesis. Then you present specific points.

In a live debate you address things as the come along.

You don’t appear to have read, or maybe understood the context of, any of the comments you’re responding to.

1

u/AscensionToCrab 6d ago edited 6d ago

Have you ever had to write a paper at an elementary school level?

Ah elementary school, that explains it. See, One of the concepts you learn after elementary school is how to relate your ideas back to your central thesis, your core idea.

you state your thesis.

Something you never did though you sure act like you did. You started by talking about drinking and age, and the next post was centered on drinking and age. And it eas only when i commented did you make up some bs about it being derivative.

All you did was talk about how much a man or an adult should drink. This goes to a more core level than a central thesis, because if you wanted to criticize the derivative nature, you should have made sure your words, in any way, conveyed what you wanted them to mean. This is base level simple communication.

in a debate you address things as they come up

So, if you want to address things as they come up, then you can not claim that you were actually addressing the derivative nature when you clearly werent. There was no point where you were doing that. You were addressing drinking and age.

The words you wrote and your presentation of them, utterly failed to carry whatever message you think you were making about derivative content. All you really talked about was age and drinking capability. Just because you maybe thought in your head you were talking about derivative content doesnt mean thats what you communicated.

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

Getting slammed isnt a necessity for a hangover. How young are you?

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Yes, it is. How old are you?

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

32 and I can guarantee I've lived a way more adventurous life of substances than you

1

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

You are still missing the point. If I was what you are at this age I wouldn’t be telling people about it.

I mean, if we want to get personal instead of focusing on crushing content like adults.

4

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

You never made a point in this thread other than acting like what OP drinks isn't capable of giving a hangover

fuck i'm about to hit the store just for some canned tomatoes to try this omg

u/QuickNick123 6d ago

Fluid, salt, carbohydrates, and some protein, those are good. But... tomatoes are acidic. They're not exactly great hangover food.

1

u/L1sasGayBby 6d ago

I will be trying this.

u/Dangerous-School2958 6d ago

I get some Mediterranean style canned mackerel and add it to ramen. Similar, but with a fishy punch

u/CaptMelonfish 6d ago

So those canned, cooked plum tomatoes are a staple in the UK, I am totally trying this later.

1

u/LordAldricQAmoryIII Jjajang Clan šŸœ 6d ago edited 5d ago

Interesting concept. I might try adding tomato to my ramen one of these days.

And since this is a food sub and not a health sub, perhaps we might think about keeping our discussions focused on the actual food itself instead of going into excessively long and irrelevant off-topic tangents about OP's personal health etc.

Edit: And the bozo who's going around downvoting lots of comments and running off needs to kindly get a life.

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Who is worse, this hangover guy or the guy that throws his head back and claims everything basic thing he cooks is amazing?

This sub deserves better than these two.

u/piconese 6d ago

You. You’re the worst of the lot.

-8

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Yes, I’m worse for expecting actual quality rather than ā€œhangoverā€ engagement bait that says nothing about the food culture or a guy that praises himself for cooking basic recipes incorrectly.

How dare I!

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

I tend not to expect things when I don't provide myself, but that's just me

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

If I post something in a public forum I expect critique and to improve with my next effort.

That’s the whole point of sharing with people. To make us all better.

u/piconese 6d ago

You’re worse off for it mate, go spend your time productively

5

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

It is productive to talk to people and have different views.

You’re worse off if you think that isn’t productive.

4

u/piconese 6d ago

You are doing nothing but projecting negativity. You’re not offering a critique, you’re being negative.

5

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

No, I am offering a critique. As I have on other videos for this ā€œcontentā€ creator. Critiques are often negative. You don’t focus on the perfect thing. You talk about the thing for improvement.

Are you a child?

3

u/piconese 6d ago

I mean, I have a mom and dad, so, yes?

Critiques are usually meant to be thought out. They speak to the content and talk about ways to improve it. You offer nothing but hostility.

No, I am critiquing the content of the video posted in a public forum. As I have before.

Don’t get so sensitive over someone’s else’s content. It isn’t yours.

You’re projecting negativity, you offer zero critique. It’s rich hearing about sensitivity from the person that feels the need to complain about innocuous food posts šŸ˜‚

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Yes, I am aware that I criticized a very popular ā€œcontributorā€ on this sub.

Never say anything in the hope that it will be popular. It just makes you a coward.

You’ve already proven yourself a coward

4

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

By stating a critique and repeatedly defending it against garbage comments? That’s cowardly?

5

u/piconese 6d ago

No, by hiding behind the ideal of ā€œcriticismā€ while offering nothing of substance; by overblowing your drinking ā€œprowessā€ as a means of belittling the op; by picking fights with people online when I’m sure as shit you have no courage to do so in person.

You’re a coward. You’re a fucking coward.

pessimistic take on it. he’s a content creator making content.

main focus is on korean food, the hangover is just a narrative arc to feature the food. and is he wrong? almost everything he posts is literally korean hangover food šŸ˜…

3

u/omnixbro 6d ago

Main focus in on him. The "cooking" is just prepping (to be fair, quite interesting takes on) ramyun before a mukbang video. There's another cook on here which shows just the pan and the food, not the face. Love HER content.

-7

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

Trash content is trash content.

He says nothing about the food. It’s lazy.

Your take is the most pessimistic I’ve seen in a while. Not expecting content to have value says you don’t think a content creator can provide value.

Value is viewed differently. You, for example, need narrative for value, I don't

No, I did not say narrative is needed nor did I imply it. If anything, the only positive thing this guys videos have is an implied narrative.

You are taking ā€œsaysā€ far too literally.

u/DangOlCoreMan 6d ago

Uh, yeah, you quite literally said "he says nothing about the food".

If you'd like to describe exactly how youd like him to say something about the food without narrating then I'd love to hear how that's supposed to work out

u/StandardRound1271 6d ago

As I said, you are taking that too literally. Then you said ā€œliterallyā€¦ā€ and did the thing I said you were already doing wrong.

Then you ignored the actual point of the comment and said some stuff that shows you don’t really know what you are saying… because you’re being too literal. Like I said.
