Milmyeon(Wheat Noodles)– Cold noodles made from wheat flour that have developed mainly in Busan –

Milmyeon (wheat noodles) are similar to naengmyeon, but wheat noodles are relatively recent in origin. They were created after people who fled to Busan after the Korean War used noodles made from wheat flour imported from America instead of buckwheat, which was hard to come by. Wheat noodles became popular mainly in the Busan area, and are now commonly eaten, especially in the summer. They have a softer texture than naengmyeon and a rich wheat aroma, and their unique taste has developed along with the culture of Busan.
