Chapagetti

Chapagetti (Korean: 짜파게티) is a brand of ramyeon produced by Nongshim in South Korea since 1984.[1] Chapagetti is the first instant noodle product to resemble jajangmyeon in South Korea and is the second highest-selling brand of instant noodles in South Korea.[2] Its name is a portmanteau of jajangmyeon (which is also romanized as chajangmyŏn) and spaghetti.[3] In 2012, the sales of Chapagetti reached 159.5 billion won with 88% of market share.[1]

In the Academy Award-winning South Korean film Parasite, a dish called Chapaguri (짜파구리) is cooked by one of the characters, which is a mix of Chapagetti and Neoguri.[4] The English version of the film calls this "ram-don", an expression created by the translator, and the footage shows packages labelled in English "ramyeon" and "udon" to highlight to English speakers how the name was created.[5] Nongshim published an "official" recipe for Chapaguri on their YouTube channel.[6]
