If you are into k-pop, you probably would know that “Dynamite” is a single released by BTS on 21st August, 2020. ARMY streamed and worked very hard which led “Dynamite” to become the most viewed music video within 24 hours with 101.4 million views in the shortest amount of time and the first ever single by a Korean k-pop group to have 2 #1s on the Billboard Hot 100.
Well, I’m not into that kind of music, not at all, nor most of anything Korean, actually and to me, “dynamite” is a slang word used to mean awesome. Now, the question is: would I say this plate of noodles…
…is dynamite? Read on to find out what I think about it.
The ladies in the house have been buying all kinds of Korean noodles, most of them ridiculously spicy and needless to say, I would not touch them with a ten-foot pole until one day, when my girl came home with this…
I think she got it from the supermarket at the mall near my house. She cooked a packet and let me try a bit and I would say that I quite liked it. Of course, she loved it to bits!!!
I decided to cook a packet myself that day and other than the noodles, there was this sachet…
…inside. Soup? But my girl had it served dry.
I decided I would follow the way she did it and I heated a bit of the beef soup that I cooked the day before and a few slices of the meat and once it had started boiling, I added half of the soup base in the sachet…
…before adding the noodles and mixing everything together well.
Once the sauce had dried up, I dished out the noodles, sprinkled some chopped spring onion from my garden on top and served…
Yes, it was nice but no, I would not say it was dynamite! At the end of the day, it is what is is – instant noodles and knowing the prices of those Korean imports, I am pretty sure that for one packet of that, I can buy those Indonesian instant mi goreng, RM2.99 for a pack of 5 and enjoy it just as much, if not more.
