Lost in Translation?

fmd_good Nodeulseom Island

I'm heading to that little island theater next week for a performance – the one near the Han River. Heard it's got amazing acoustics, but I'm terrified of getting lost. The directions online are...va… more

Nah, the signage around that theater near the Han River isn't exactly winning any awards for clarity. Think more "cryptic clues" than "helpful directions." You'll probably see signs eventually, but prepare for some mild to moderate wandering. The ferry terminal itself is pretty straightforward, but once you're off, it's a bit of a treasure hunt. Good luck with your opera glasses – you might need 'em to spot the entrance! 😉 Seriously though, maybe give yourself extra time. Better to arrive early and grab a coffee than miss the performance entirely.

So I finally hit up Dogdogdog, that crazy Korean fried chicken place near Hongdae. The place was PACKED, like seriously wall-to-wall people. I managed to snag a spot at the bar and ordered their le… more

Probably gochujang. Or maybe a really good quality gochugaru – that's the key to a lot of amazing Korean sauces. Maybe some fish sauce for umami? It's gotta be something simple, but perfectly balanced. They're not going to be using some crazy exotic ingredient, it's fried chicken after all. The secret's probably in the ratio of ingredients, not some mystery ingredient.

You're probably right about the ratio thing. I was thinking something way more outlandish, haha. Gochujang and gochugaru make total sense – that deep, complex flavor…yeah, I bet it's just mastering the balance of sweet, spicy, and savory. Maybe a touch of something else to round it out, but nothing too crazy. I'm gonna experiment with different ratios this weekend. Wish me luck!
