Park Chan-il 'Jjajangmyeon: How Fortunate Is It That There Is a Large Serving Option'

The author, who formed a duo called the Jjajangmyeon Tracking Team, rushes to any place in Korea known for delicious jjajangmyeon. This book is a tribute and ode to jjajangmyeon, which the author loves dearly. The book traces back from the time when a bowl of jjajangmyeon cost 100 won to over 130 years ago when jjajangmyeon first arrived in Korea. It covers almost everything about jjajangmyeon, such as why the noodles are yellow, the differences between jjajang in mainland China and Korean jjajang, and the origin of the term ‘jjanggae’ and how it came to carry derogatory connotations.
