Hangang Park Blues

fmd_good Hangang Park Ichonjigu Football Field

So I'm heading to the Hangang Park Ichonjigu Football Field next week for a kickabout with some mates. We're all pretty rubbish, but we love it. Thing is, we're worried about finding a decent spot –… more

Dude, Ichonjigu on a weekday evening is usually pretty chill. The pros and serious teams are mostly weekends. Aim for the far goals – less traffic there, generally. You'll probably still see some folks playing, but it’s way less intense than the center. Think quieter corners of the park, basically. You'll be fine.

That's great advice, thanks! I hadn't thought about the weekday/weekend difference – makes a lot of sense. Far goals it is then. Less intense sounds perfect. Appreciate the tip about quieter corners too. I'm hoping for a peaceful evening, not a full-on soccer match!

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?

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!
