    This looks like undercooked hot dogs in a bowl of spaghetti-o’s.

    Yea, this is Korean food, but it’s one of my absolute favorite dishes. There’s a 24 hour spa in my state that I used to drive over to occasionally, and they have a little restaurant inside with a bunch of Korean street food items. I would get Tteokbokki everytime, despite it setting my mouth on fire. Totally worth it.

    This might be amazingly delicious but everything being the same colour kinda freaks me out.

    Why is everything the same colour, just different shapes?

    Uh.. yah this is Korean. Not famous in Vietnam at all, although kpop and k culture is trending in all over SEA. I have traveled Vietnam quite a bit and never seen or heard of tteokbbokgi being famous there.

  7. Ok, Korean street food done Vietnamese-style. Serious collision cuisine.

  8. if you’re paying $1.50 for this you got took. you can buy this all over Vietnam for about $.60.

    I think this looks delicious, but when I bought it, it was so freaking chewy. I like the sauce it’s in, but I can’t bite through the tteokbokki, and when I do it takes a day and a half to eat.

    I was disappointed but I was glad to try it.

    $1.5 USD is quite expensive for road side food in Vietnam in my opinion. I grew up and lived in Saigon for 16 years, but living in the US for 10 years now. The living price must go up crazily now I suppose

    Jesus the comments in here are just asinine. No one’s heard of one country’s food becoming popular, or even existing in another country??
