South Korea’s exports of instant noodles, also known as ramyeon, jumped nearly 40% in January 2024 compared to last year.

They brought in $86 million, which was a record for January.

Exports of ramyeon have been growing every year because Korean movies, TV shows, and music have become increasingly popular.

People also like how quick and easy ramyeon is to make.

Last year was a record for ramyeon exports.

They made $952 million, which was 24.4% more than the year before.

They exported 244,000 tons of ramyeon last year, which is about 2 billion bags.

Korean ramyeon was sold in 132 different countries last year, also a new record high.

Based on how sales have been increasing, the customs agency expects exports to top $1 billion this year.
