Street Food in Korea!

This post is especially for the people who like street food! :)

I have actually never eaten street food in Turkey but when I was in Korea I ate a lot! In Turkey we avoid eating street food because we think it's unhygienic, but in Korea you can see lots of people standing in front of street food stands and enjoying their food... I asked one of my Korean friends whether they are dirty or not and the answer was they may be dirty but they are delicious... :D I didn't eat any street food during my first month in Korea but... now I regret every moment I didn't eat... okay no exaggeration, not that much haha but I do miss Korean street food now! I think the first street food I tried in Korea was 떡볶이(Ddeokbokki-spicy rice cake) and it was sooooo delicious so after that I started to stop each time I see a stand to eat some street food :D And since street food is very cheap and filling, as an exchange student in Korea, it was quite useful for me to take control of my budget :D

Let me show you some of the street foods I ate in Korea~

thank you @happyhousewife :)

Your so welcome

This is an awesome story! I love street food myself. I was in the US Navy for 5 years and during that time I visited many amazing countries with delicious street food. I guess while I was in the Navy I didn't think much of the food making me sick as the chow on the boat was "For prison or military use only." I have also been to
Turkey, Antalya to be exactimages.duckduckgo.com.jpg
and by far it was some of the most incredible cousine I have ever had the pleasure of consuming, and that I did a lot of :)
Thanks so much for your awesom story, I hope you enjoy every minute in Korea!

@socore Thanks for your comment!
Glad to hear you liked Turkish cuisine, I also love it ahaha
Antalya is a pretty nice city, the only problem is the extremely hot weather in summer(for me) haha but if you have a chance, visit here again :)

Korean street food seems to be very nice and hygienic. In India street foods are tasty but not hygienic like in Turkey.
