The savory seafood dish is raw crab marinated in soy sauce, still with its insides and roe. Due to the addictive salty richness, ganjang gejang is fondly referred to as a “rice thief,” because once one sits down with the crab, rice disappears so quickly.
Despite the appeal, the dish was picked in June among foreign visitors to Korea as the most challenging Korean food, due to its rawness.

Next up in the list were cheonggukjang -- a soup of fermented beans -- and sannakji -- live octopus.
The depth and breadth of Korean cuisine far exceeds the hackneyed menu items of fried chicken and K-BBQ. If Park Shin-hye can have it, so can you!
