I still have a lot of doodles to do for my Korean food reading journal, I’m trying to do one per day to catch up.

For this one, I didn’t feel like drawing all the food mentioned :meow_nervoussweat: (the characters order the “tuna special”, a full course that comes with a lot of different side dishes in addition to the tuna sashimi platter), so I searched for tuna restaurants with interesting signboards and doodled that instead.

The top part of the left page of a notebook. The very top is filled with doodles: two signboards in Korean with the word “tuna” on it. One has the word 연 written in the shape of a fish: ㅇ is the eye, ㅕ the body with fish bones and ㄴ the ventral fin. A fish is also drawn between the two signboards. Below the drawings there is some text in Korean that mentions a lot of fish-related food. The name of each dish is written in blue.

I finished the short story 천사는 마로니에 공원에서 죽는다 by 김아직, a murder story set in the Marronnier Park at Daehangno. It’s funny because I’ve been there several times, and I had no idea it was called “Marronnier Park”.

I’ve been taking notes for my Korean food reading challenge, and there were so many mentions of food in this short story!
Ramyeon, brioche, ox bone soup (설렁탕), grilled chicken on skewer (닭꼬치), fried chicken (닭튀김), sandwiches…
Fictional characters really do eat a lot in Korean novels :blobcatgiggle: :meowHungry:

I’m doing it, a Korean food reading challenge! I’ll write down all mentions of food/dishes I find in Korean novels to see which one is the most popular :meow_read: :meowHungry:

I’m thinking of doing a page per food, and fill it with the title of the book and the sentence that mentions it.

+ I’m adding small doodles for each dish. Starting with ramyeon (it’s the first mention I saw, followed by burger lol), I’ll add colours later.

Made a banchan with 방아잎 (Korean mint) tonight, it’s so good! It tastes like anise and is very refreshing.

Also had one with 고구마줄기 (sweet potato stems), they are so annoying to prepare because you have to peel them one by one :blobcatdead:
