If there’s one thing many Korean foodies can agree on, it’s that Korean instant noodles go so hard… especially Buldak ramen!

The hot chicken-flavoured noodles make the perfect mukbang in the middle of the night and comfort meal on cheat days.

It has also taken over the Internet. First, it was the spicy noodle challenge; now, content creators are coming up with various ways to level up their buldak ramen—with cheese, dumplings, eggs, maybe a stew and more!

Here are some Buldak Ramen variations you can find in KL & PJ 😉
