The Ramen That Is Exceptionally Popular in the Gyeongsang Region

Everyone has different tastes, so there are definitely people in Gyeongsang who don't like Anseongtangmyun! There are probably some in this thread too, and that's totally fine—I'm not saying it's a problem.

However, based on statistics and sales volume, a majority of people in Gyeongsang do prefer Anseongtangmyun.

While tastes have become more diverse these days, there was a time when Anseongtangmyun was practically the "default" ramen in Gyeongsang.

Compared to other regions, the popularity of Anseongtangmyun is quite noticeable.

Nongshim analyzed this by stating, "The Gyeongsang region has a traditionally developed food culture using soybeans; therefore, consumers in Gyeongsang who prefer doenjang (soybean paste) seem to seek out the uniquely rich and savory broth of Anseongtangmyun, which was developed with a doenjang base."
