It’s relatively recent that Korean food has become spicy. Chili peppers arrived in the late 16th century but took off in the mid-20th century in South Korea. • 2. Koreans eat spicy food to cope with stress from the war, poverty, and rapid modernization as a temporary escape from life’s hardships. • 3. In the 2010s, life continued to be stressful, and Korean spicy food shifted from being enjoyable to simply causing pain. • 4. Now many Koreans have “Maebbushim” (pride in their ability to handle extreme spiciness). • 5. Don’t worry though. If you can’t eat spicy food, you’re not alone. I’m a Maebjjiri (someone who can’t eat spicy food). Now that Korean food is spicier than ever, I introduce myself as a Maebjjiri whenever I’m at a Korean restaurant. They either try to make it milder for me or give me a side-eye. But I’ll still take that chance! • Korean spicy food is great as a quick stress relief, but keep it to a healthy level to avoid an upset stomach! • #koreanculture #koreanlanguage #koreangirl #koreanfood #spicyfood #maebbushim #maebjjiri
