Korean hot soup
medium courage 60 min +110 XP
Yukgaejang or kimchi jjigae, and no asking them to tone it down. Rice and water alongside are part of the plan
Why this matters
Asking for it milder is refusing the dish before it arrives.
What to do
Order yukgaejang or kimchi jjigae and soften nothing. The first spoonfuls are honestly hard — that is normal, the heat rises and then levels off. Eat rice together with the soup, not after: it cools better than water. Keep water nearby but do not gulp it, that makes it worse. Sit it out to the end even with a wet forehead: about halfway the warmth kicks in that Koreans eat this for.
Afterwards
What do I usually ask to have milder — in food and elsewhere?
