[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Homeplus announced on the 28th that it will sell a new jajang ramen product called ‘Ichunsam,’ which offers high cost-effectiveness at 500 won per pack, starting from the 29th.

Ichunsam is named after the first letters of ‘This is Real Chunjang 39.6% (samshipgup yuk peuro),’ and it is not just a simple low-priced ramen but contains a generous amount of real chunjang. The chunjang content of 39.6% is the highest level among jajang ramen currently sold at Homeplus.

Instead of granular soup powder, it uses a liquid soup based on real chunjang, so the jajang soup does not clump and mixes evenly during cooking. It is characterized by a rich flavor that remains from the compressed jajang taste made by grinding and compressing ingredients including a high content of real chunjang.

A Homeplus official said, “Ichunsam is the result of Homeplus’s ongoing efforts throughout the year to stabilize prices,” adding, “It is a product that can satisfy customers not only in price but also in quality.”
