By / MOOK Scenic Spots Editorial Team, compiled and reported

Whether traveling abroad or domestically, many travelers often bring along a few packs of instant noodles to stave off hunger or ease homesickness. There’s one ultra-popular travel instant noodle product in Korea that not only earns praise for its taste from many netizens, but also, due to being much smaller than regular instant noodles, offers great portability—sparking a buzz in Korea.

Regular instant noodles take up space if they come in bowls, and if not, you have to find a bowl to prepare them. This travel instant noodle solves both problems. It comes in a compressed package, taking up only half the space of a bowl-type noodle pack. The bottom is a compressed bag that begins to expand after adding hot water. Then, when you put on the included cup, it looks just like regular instant noodles—very unique.
