Jjamppong

Jjamppong is a Chinese-style Korean noodle soup with red, spicy seafood- or pork-based broth flavored with gochugaru (chili powder). Common ingredients include onions, garlic, Korean zucchini, carrots, cabbages, squid, mussels, and pork. The dish was inspired by Chinese cuisine. Along with jajangmyeon, it is a popular dish found predominantly in Chinese restaurants in Korea as part of Korean Chinese cuisine. While the dish is derived from the Chinese Shandong-style chǎomǎmiàn (炒碼麵), the name of the dish was derived from chanpon, a Japanese Chinese cuisine dish itself derived from the Fujian-style mènmiàn (燜麵). During the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910–1945), the Japanese saw chǎomǎmiàn in Chinese restaurants in Korea and named it chanpon, as the white soup seemed similar to the soup of chanpon to their eyes. The Japanese word was subsequently adapted phonetically into Korean as jjamppong.
