My impression on my first tour to Korea is.... PORK is their stapple! I think it must be quite difficult for a Moslem to live there :P Thank God that I am an omnivore, I eat everything!
Korean has a healthy way to eat pork dishes, i.e. by wrapping it in lettuce!
This is the only dish I ate more during my Korea trip in 2007 ... Black pork (Indonesian: celeng, just like in Asterix-Obelix) in Jeju Island is the most delicious cuisine on the tour.
Here is a posting of all pork dishes, with different type of cooking (steamed, BBQ, with kimchi, with rice cake)... Wang Jokbal, Bo ssam, Ssam bap...
