What the creator captured
Mark Wiens explored the seafood capital of Sokcho, starting with a unique cold fried chicken served in a gift box that he found surprisingly addictive. He was particularly impressed by the massive, gooey potato pancakes and the rich, milky ox bone broth prepared in enormous outdoor vats. The standout experience was tasting the regional specialty of squid sundae, which features a whole stuffed squid sliced and fried in an egg batter.
