A: Have you eaten yet?
B: Yeah, I just had some ramyeon.
A: Good. Was this your first time trying it?
B: Yeah, but that was too spicy for me.
A: I can imagine. Why don't you try non-spicy ramyeon next time?
B: Non-spicy? You should've told me earlier!


RESPONSE>> Talk about how to make great ramyeon.

Koreans consume enormous amounts of ramyeon every year.
* consume: 소비하다

On average, a typical Korean eats 75 ramyeons a year.
ex> On average, I drink about two cups of coffee a day.

Here's how to make already great ramyeon even better.

First, you need a cheap aluminum pot. It's called "yang-eun-naem-bee." You can find them in any store.

Second, the amount of water is very important.
ex> We all need to increase the amount of sleep we get.

Make sure you have a measuring cup so that you can put in the exact amount according to cooking instructions.
* measuring cup: 계량컵
ex> You need to make sure the room is tidy.

Following instructions is very important. They're there for a reason.
ex> I'm sure she's angry for a reason.

Third, add extra ingredients to your ramyeon.

You can add just about anything to your ramyeon.
* just about anything: 거의 모든 것
ex> I would do just about anything to get a decent job.

I usually add green onions, cheese and eggs.

Fourth, cook your ramyeon at the highest temperature possible.
ex> You can sell your used laptops at the highest possible price on eBay.

It's just better this way. Now your ramyeon is ready. Have kimchi as your side dish. It's the best choice.


@ She really eats like a bird.  그녀는 정말 입이 짧아

1. On average, I jog about five kilometers every morning.
2. When cooking rice, the amount of water is very important.

3. Make sure you turn off the television after you've done.
4. You can eat just about anything at the buffet.
