Samyang Buldak is such a popular brand that its fans try to seek out every single flavor that has ever existed to make sure they can try them all. A while back on Reddit, I started maintaining an active list of all known flavors and their status. You can now find that list here, along with links to my reviews of each one I've tried. This list does not include offshoot products like tteokbokki, dumplings, or hot sauce, but rather only focuses on noodle products.
Lists
This section includes all of my noodle-related lists, including ranked top and bottom lists, brand roundups, and product-specific compilations. If you’re looking for organized breakdowns I’ve created, you’ll find those here.
Bottom 5 Instant Noodles (2024) | Noodle Journey
Welcome to the Hall of Shame, my first-ever Bottom 5 Instant Noodles list. After reviewing hundreds of products, I’ve suffered through the bland, the boring, and the downright offensive so you don't have to. Unless you are morbidly curious, you should stay away from these five varieties.
Top 10 Instant Noodles (2024) | Noodle Journey
I recently hit the milestone of 1,000 subscribers, and to celebrate, I’m finally compiling the first-ever Noodle Journey Top 10 Instant Noodles list. Over the course of this channel, I’ve reviewed a massive variety of noodles, but these ten are the absolute best-in-class for their categories, in my humble opinion. These are the varieties that blew me away when I tried them and that I keep stocked regularly in my pantry for when I’m not filming reviews. This list is in no particular order. These are simply the major varieties that are easily obtainable and represent the pinnacle of my own instant noodle universe in 2024.
Marutai Local Series Round Up | Noodle Journey Episode 60
This Marutai Local Series Round Up isn't a review so much as a summary and ranking of the 12 current Marutai "Local Series" varieties that preceded this episode. Some of these are harder to find than others, and of course they're all import items so they may cost a bit more, so my goal here is to help you decide which of these you should buy.
