Résumé

When Netflix's "K-Pop Demon Hunters" captivated audiences worldwide in June 2025, viewers fell in love not just with the demon-fighting K-pop group Huntrix, but with the Korean foods they ate. Rumi shoving an entire roll of kimbap into her mouth, the group calmly eating ramyeon while their plane crashes, finding comfort in a bowl of seolleongtang after despair-these scenes sparked a global curiosity: "What are these foods?"This book unveils the rich history and cultural significance hidden within each dish featured in the series, told through the eyes of a Korean journalist who understands these foods as more than mere sustenance.
Kimbap traces its journey from Japanese norimaki to becoming uniquely Korean-a transformation story of food crossing borders. From the "thousand-won miracle" that fed ordinary people to today's premium versions, kimbap embodies the Korean spirit of togetherness, requiring many hands to prepare and meant to be shared. Ramyeon reveals Korea's survival and resilience. Born in 1963 as simple chicken-flavored noodles, it transformed into the iconic red-broth ramyeon that defines Korean identity today.
It's the friend waiting at convenience stores at 3 AM, the comfort food that helps Koreans preserve their "everyday life" even in crisis. Seolleongtang carries 600 years of history in its milky-white broth. Originating from a royal ceremony where kings and commoners shared food together, it became the hearty meal of industrial workers and remains the ultimate healing food for Koreans. In gukbap restaurants open 24 hours, this soup continues to warm hearts and bodies.
Eomuk holds the tears and hopes of war refugees. During the Korean War, Busan fish cakes became survival food for those who fled with nothing. Today, the hot broth served free at street carts offers the same comfort-a grandmother's warm touch in every sip, neutralizing spicy flavors and soothing weary souls. Tteokbokki embodies Korean resilience through its fiery red sauce. Though it began as royal court cuisine in the Joseon Dynasty, a grandmother's accidental discovery in the 1950s transformed it into the spicy-sweet street food loved today.
The capsaicin triggers endorphins, offering both physical and emotional relief-a "survival flame" that helps Koreans endure life's battles. Each chapter explores not just recipes or cooking methods, but the stories of ordinary people who made these foods their own. These are not fancy restaurant dishes but "foods of the common people"-found at school snack shops, street carts, and 24-hour restaurants.
Inexpensive yet filled with care, simple yet warm, these foods embody the Korean value of sharing and togetherness. Just as Huntrix gained strength from these foods before fighting demons, Koreans have drawn power from these dishes throughout their arduous history-surviving poverty, war, and rapid industrialization. Within each bowl and plate lies the anguish and joy, the tears and laughter, and above all, the warm hearts of Korean people.
This book is an invitation to understand Korea not through its palaces or K-pop stages, but through the everyday foods that sustained a nation and continue to comfort millions today.
