    Hey Maangchi and Korean food lovers,

    the soup was such a hit at my 설날 party. I had friends do various steps in the process of making the soup. We spent a fabulous afternoon laughing at each others’ less than perfect cooking skills, chatting, being merry… Feel good, Maangchi:your soup warmed up not only our bellies but our hearts, too. For one afternoon we all had a home away from home. My Korean buddies said that the “soup was better than made by a Korean.” Whether that was true or kind, doesn’t matter. The soup was really international: French, Mongolian-Russian, American, Japanese and Canadian (washed!) hands worked on the soup in the midst of Seoul.

    진짜 재미 있었어요 (It was really fun)

    Adieu

    진절하게 대답 해주셧어 감사합니다. I got a new computer with 한글 finally and am only too happy to show off my Korean, as poor as it still is. Actually, I went shopping for the ingredients before I read your answer, so I ended up buying fish sauce imported from Thailand. It’s not three crabs but a brand name “Squid.”

    You’d be surprised at the choice of intl food in Seoul these days, in both restaurants and shops. You can find anything, and not with too much difficulty, might I add.

    Tonight I made ‘the test soup’ before the Tuesday cooking with friends, – oh I am Chickletta from youtube, btw. Same as you “I love my own food, yummy” ㄲㄲ; I am polishing off a third bowl already. Keep up the good – heck! OUTSTANDING work.

    새해福많이받으세요~~

    I don’t know what Korean word for ‘fish sauce” is (saeng-son so-suh or saeng-son kanjang kkk).

    Can you tell me what to buy in Korea, if you still remember?. Or can I use dry anchovies? If yes, then how? Or, I have a bottle of oyster sauce I brought from Thailand. Can I use that? Or can I simply skip the fish sauce?

    Ooops! sorry too many questions.

    You’ll be happy to know that the best student in our Korean class (in the most respected Korean studies program in Korea – Seogang university) is not a ‘usual suspect’ from China or Japan, but a French guy. He rocks in his linguistic ability. I am …. ehm… struggling, but dilligently doing my homework.

    kkkk (this is hahaha in Korean)
