Buldak

Samyang Buldak — The Korean Fire Ramen That Took Over the World

Buldak (불닭), meaning "fire chicken" in Korean, was created in South Korea as one of the spiciest instant ramens on the market. Samyang launched it in 2012 and it quickly became a global phenomenon — fuelled by viral YouTube and TikTok challenges, Buldak is now one of the best-selling ramens in Europe.

Which Buldak should you choose? Every version carries the same signature Buldak flavour — rich umami with intense heat — but at different spice levels and in different styles:

Buldak Original is the classic, with heat that's challenging but manageable. Buldak 2x Spicy doubles the fire and is not for beginners. Buldak Carbonara adds a creamy twist that balances the heat — perfect for those who love intense flavour without the extreme burn. Buldak Stew Bowl comes in a large cup with a thicker broth, while Buldak Tteokbokki combines the fire sauce with chewy Korean rice cakes.

How to prepare Buldak? Cook the noodles, drain almost all the water (leave 2–3 tablespoons), add the sauce and dry seasoning, mix well and serve. Ready in 5 minutes.

All Buldak varieties are available online with fast delivery across Croatia in 1–3 business days.
