Big fan of korean and these looked great. After going all over LA to pull together each and every ingredient, have to say I was disappointed with the outcome. Good but not great is my assessment, and certainly not worth the time it takes to assemble the specialty ingredients. Maybe if I lived in Koreatown next to a good market it would have been easier, but living in the valley and tracking down ingredients was a chore.
