Re: korean food
I ate most of this stuff on a semi-regular basis in Japan. This thread is awesome because I never knew the real names. Kimchi can be eaten with practically any meat product and is far more tasty than it appears. The problem I always had was getting kimchi products at bars, the [censored] just killed my stomach when combined with beer. I had no idea that kalbi (called karubi in Japanese, lol), was a Korean meat. The whole "grill at the table" thing was really big there, I see it actually came from Korea as I recognize all of those meats. At an actual Korean place the pancake type things were my favorite as they tended to be safe.
Foreign food in Japan tends to be really bad - you have to go to either expensive places or places that cater to expats to get anything that isn't watered down for the Japanese palate.

Re: korean food
Just had a spicy cod and monkfish spicy seafood soup at O-dae san on Olympic in LA. Plus a few pieces of sushi. A tasty din-din; if you only do korean bbq you're missing out a lot in this cuisine.

Re: korean food
Another dish I love is called tang-su-yuk. It's the Korean version of sweet and sour chicken. Bad places will make it too sweet, oversauced, with overcooked chicken. Good ones will have a lightly sweet sauce over tender chicken.
 Man, I want some now.

Re: korean food
Call me uncultured, but this doesn't look remotely Korean... but then again, I'm guessing that my exposure to Korean food is all kind of "country".

Re: korean food
 DDUK BO KKI FOR THE MOTHER EFFING WIN Cylindrical-shaped rice cake (dduk), preferably with odeng (fish cake), all slathered in a spicy, slightly sweet chili sauce. This is your standard vendor food if you're in Korea. It's cheap, it's ghetto, it's awesome. Edit: Spanaway Vin, ttang su yook (sweet and sour chicken) is another one of those Korean/Chinese foods. The only place you'll find it made like that is at a Korean-owned Chinese place, along with jja-jjang myun (noodles in black bean sauce) and jjam-ppong (spicy seafood noodle soup).

And if you're ever in Korea, you can get this on the street - it'll be cheap and awesome.
