A big thanks to Daniel over at www.exoticnoods.com for sending this one! I’ve been wanting to try it and mukbang it up for a while now (mukbang vid at bottom of the page), and here it is. I love tom yum. I’m curious though as the Buldak base has the heat, but it also imparts some sweetness as well. Interesting. I guess the correct route is to give it a try.

Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge).
An instant noodle block.
A sachet of soup base powder seasoning.
A sachet of liquid soup base.
A sachet of vegetables.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added lemon slice, crushed red pepper, scallion, sesame seed, and shrimp. Noodle is a slightly broad thick noodle with a soft tooth. The broth which is plentiful where a Buldak variety is concerned – ‘Stew Type.’ The broth has a sweet and kind of different flavor; it doesn’t make me think tom yum. It’s got a very low heat level compared to other Buldak varieties. Kind of a tomato thing with oiliness and a kind of flavor that ekes it was toward tom yum I suppose but doesn’t really arrive there. That being said, this is really good; the flavor it arrives at is apt and tasty, and pairs well with the noodle. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 192699000369.
