koreans can't do spice at all, its a little pathetic. the only types they have are gochujang like gred said, black pepper, and small green peppers called put-gochu.
ordering gamjatang and having it come out with a literal pile of black pepper on it is an eye opener.
there is no asian country with worse food than korea.
