I am not a fan of kimchi, a spicy \u201crelish\u201d usually made out of cabbage or other greens, but I discovered I just love most Korean food.<\/p>\n<p>Our daughter Kate was our culinary guide in Korea. She speaks Korean and just spent 18 months there serving as an LDS missionary. Three weeks after her return, we flew back to Korea together.<\/p>\n<p>In Korea, food means love, Kate explained. If someone loves you, they feed you. They feed you a lot. If you are eating at someone\u2019s home, it is bad manners to stop eating before the food is done. Even if you are full, you finish. Hopefully your friends will pitch in and help! In a restaurant, finish the main dish but it is ok if you don\u2019t finish the side dishes. I felt like I would pop at one home we dined in; Frank and Kate stopped eating so I felt responsible for the rest of the meat. Not hungry the next morning.<\/p>\n<p>Time for a culinary tour of Korea!

Samgyeopsal was delicious, and they serve all kinds of little sides with it. Greens and kimchi, of course.<\/p>\n<p>Where there is a festival, there is food. At the cherry blossom festival in Jinhae (a 2 to 3-hour high speed train ride from Seoul), the festival was in full swing. Fire-eaters, food tents and hundreds of thousands of cherry blossoms! We had our first tornado potato there\u2014Kate\u2019s favorite street food. We ate it so fast I didn\u2019t get a picture of it! Basically it is a fried spiralized potato and dipped in sugar. Mmm.<\/p>\n<p>That night we had Korean pizza.

We stayed in a residential section of town where we mainly saw Koreans. They openly stared at us. There, I discovered haddeok, my favorite street food. It is a pancake stuffed with caramelized brown sugar and other spices, then pan-fried to perfection. When I smelled them on a chilly Busan night, I pointed to it and said \u201cI want one of THOSE!\u201d They\u2019re served in a little paper cup, and really should come with a wet wipe, because of the gooey-ness factor.<\/p>\n<p>Lunch with Korean friends in Busan was an event. We were ushered up to a room on the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> floor of the restaurant, where the server started bringing steaming dishes of deliciousness. Bugogi (marinated pork), glass noodles, tempura veggies, seaweed soup, kimchi, other spicy side dishes, radishes and greens galore. What a treat! We sat on the floor on cushions, traditional-style. Even though we ate and ate, we weren\u2019t overly full at the end of the meal, because dining is a long process. Easily 1 to 2 hours for a traditional meal. Once our meal was done, the table was literally covered with little bowls.<!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4211\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4211\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4211\" src=\"http:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-copy-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Busan traditional dinner\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-copy-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-copy-555x740.jpg 555w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-copy-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-copy.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4211\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This is us as we ate and ate and ate for over an hour.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4212\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4212\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4212\" src=\"http:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-wreckage-copy-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Busan dinner wreckage \" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-wreckage-copy-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-wreckage-copy-555x740.jpg 555w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-wreckage-copy-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Busan-dinner-wreckage-copy.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4212\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The After picture: look at all those dishes!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another delectable dish<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4210\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4210\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4210\" src=\"http:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Jenny and Kate Jinhae restaurant \" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm-555x740.jpg 555w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rice-paper-Jenny-and-Kate-sm.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4210\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jenny and Kate in Jinhae with rice paper and stew makings.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>we don\u2019t see in the USA is one using rice paper. Quickly dip the rice paper in hot water and it turns into a gelatin consistency a lot like edible plastic wrap. We stuffed it with meat, rice and greens, wrapped it in the sticky rice paper, then popped the whole thing in our mouths. Yum!<\/p>\n<p>Next we went to Tongyeong\/Geoge area and had Popbogo or rice burger as we waited for the ferry to Oedo Island. What a fun food! The sticky rice is the \u2018bun\u2019 and inside you can choose chicken, tuna, pretty much anything you want, including SPAM. Before you eat it, you smash it down with the palm of your hand, then unwrap it and enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Koreans love SPAM. This love started around the time of the Korean war. A new food, Budaejjigae, was created during that time. Buddae means army squadron and jigae means stew. When the US troops got to Korea, the people were poor and hungry, so the soldiers pooled their rations and shared their food. The creative Koreans created a unique stew from Ramen, SPAM and Korean pepper paste. The broth is red. Koreans often throw in green onions, enoki mushrooms, and rice cakes too. Kate loves it; I am still undecided. It is VERY spicy; my meat-and-potatoes upbringing never prepared me for this!<\/p>\n<p>Geoge (pronounced Koh-jay) also has a wonderful street food named honey bread. It looks like a large donut hole, but inside there is a surprise: sweetened adzuki beans. The outside is so sticky with honey they usually give you a plastic glove!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4198\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4198\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4198\" src=\"http:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/gogiguksu-soup-Jeju-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Korean Gogiguksu soup\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/gogiguksu-soup-Jeju-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/gogiguksu-soup-Jeju-555x740.jpg 555w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/gogiguksu-soup-Jeju-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/gogiguksu-soup-Jeju.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4198\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gogiguksu soup from the restaurant beside the Jeju LDS chapel.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4195\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4195\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4195\" src=\"http:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dddeok-galbi-and-bugogi.jpgsm_-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dddeok-galbi-and-bugogi.jpgsm_-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dddeok-galbi-and-bugogi.jpgsm_-555x416.jpg 555w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dddeok-galbi-and-bugogi.jpgsm_-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.frankmorin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dddeok-galbi-and-bugogi.jpgsm_.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4195\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Korean ddeok galbi (patty) and bulgogi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Next we took a quick plane hop from Busan to the resort island of Jeju, where many Koreans go to vacation. One of our first meals there was delicious and inexpensive, a favorite haunt of the missionaries. We had meat noodle soup, ddeokalbi and bulgogi. Frank especially liked\u00a0ddeokalbi which tasted like a meatloaf burger. We ate\u00a0 it with chopsticks, of course. Each meal cost $7,000 won, approximately $7 US dollars. What a great deal&#8211;no wonder the missionaries eat there often!<\/p>\n<p>Our favorite street food, unique to the area, look like mini Easter Island statues. Called dolharubang bread or \u2018stone grandfather\u2019 bread, they are filled with clementine jelly and served VERY hot\u2014I burned my tongue on the first one I tasted. But it was worth it!<\/p>\n<p>As we hiked Hallasan, the largest mountain in South Korea, the Koreans toted up their Kimpop, which reminds me of a sushi roll with seaweed on the outside and rice meat and veggies on the inside.<\/p>\n<p>Feeling hungry was a novelty for us in Korea. We ate like royalty. At our last church meeting, after 10 days of heavy dinners, for once I actually felt hungry for the afternoon meal! Never thought I\u2019d be thankful to hear my stomach growl.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4213\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4213\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption
