Thank you so much for posting this! Such a great recipe! The anchovy broth is a must. Tastes like my mom’s! She also uses 새우젓, but honestly I can’t really tell that it’s absent.

Thanks Hyosun, I loved it.

Substituted Shimaya Dashi no Moto for the anchovy stock (because I didn’t have it, but I thought it would work) and adjusted the spice to my taste and result… really tasty ! The balance was perfect. Great recipe.

Looking forward to trying more of your recipes 🙂

I love this recipe! I’ve made this about five times now and I keep coming back for more. Super comforting and I always have most of the ingredients on hand already.

Thank you for this recipe. I followed it faithfully, including the advanced level anchovy broth, and the result was magnificent! The flavors blended wonderfully, and while spicy, the broth was light and bright! The kimchee and bean sprouts were tender, but still had some crunch. I can see why its know for soothing colds and hangovers! After 3 bowls I had to stop myself. Thank you again and love how you relate your dishes to life.

I wanted to let you know; I cooked did this for my wife today, she has been suffering of congested sinuses last two days and within the hour her sinuses drained… It is a delicious easy to make meal, so much so , my coughing COPD mother in law passed by as I made it, and she tried it, she loves to try new foods, and we discovered for two hours after eating Kimchi Kongnamul Guk, she stopped coughing completely. So she took the extra portions I had home with her and asked me to gather ingredients and to teach her how to make it, for at her home as well. thank you .

Just so you know, the link in “Make anchovy stock with 8 cups of water. See the recipe.” is broken.
THANKS!
