It looks like Samyang is back for Round 2 with another carbonara flavored Buldalk Bokkeum Myeon. This time around, Samyang has embraced the soup and the cream with Buldalk Bokkeum Myeon Cream Carbonara. I can already feel my arteries seizing from all the saturated fat and carbohydrates found in this cup of instant noodles. You only live once, right? So, why not go crazy with the fats? Samyang definitely understands this and absolutely went for it! They even went as far as to throw a dash of capsaicin in there for good measure. Now, that’s living on the wild side! Now that we’re all riled up, let’s get to making some Buldalk.

Step 1.) Completely remove the lid and pull out the two packets found inside

These noodles have a radically different preparation method when compared to the other noodles in the Buldalk Series. Unlike most of the noodles found in this series, the water isn’t drained, so these noodles actually have soup. Or… at least something like soup…

So, what do you think of a creamier version of Samyang’s Buldalk Carbonara? Was it even necessary for them to make this one? Or, should they have just skipped it all together? Let me know in the comments!
