And since Parasite depicts South Korean culture, much of its storytelling brings emphasis to food. One of the most iconic dishes in cinema to date is Parasite\u2019s Ram-Don<\/strong> or Jjapaguri<\/strong>, a humble instant-noodle dish. If you\u2019ve been craving Mrs. Kim’s Ram-Don, here’s a local spot that serves the cinematic meal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n In honor of Parasite’s historic win at the Oscars, Seoul Station<\/a> in Bulacan presents Jjapaguri with Wagyu Cubes (\u20b1299)<\/strong>, their own version of Mrs. Kim’s Jjapaguri with Steak. Once you overcome the one-hour long traffic to Bulacan, then you’ll be introduced to so many more amazing dishes like this. (Just kidding, it will probably take you way longer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Either way, head on over to Seoul Station Korean Barbeque<\/strong> and have a taste of their signature Jjapaguri \/ Ram-Don dish!
