Vegetarian in Korea — how hard is it really?

Nadeuri Team 🇰🇷 · Nadeuri team

Honestly harder than much of Asia — broths and side dishes hide fish sauce and meat stock everywhere. Your toolkit: bibimbap with "고기 빼주세요" (no meat please), vegetable kimbap shops, temple food restaurants, and the vegan cluster around Itaewon/Hongdae. HappyCow plus the phrase "저는 고기 안 먹어요" (I don't eat meat) covers most situations.
