Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen[1] or buldak-bokkeum-myeon (Korean: 불닭볶음면, fire chicken stir-fried noodles), is a South Korean brand of instant noodle, produced by Samyang Foods since April 2012. The large cup ramyeon debuted in June 2012, and a smaller cup was released in November 2013.[2] It is considered one of the spiciest instant noodles available in the Korean market, with the original packet having 4,404 Scoville units.[3][4] It is a type of 'stir-fried' dry noodle: after boiling, the noodles are drained, and mixed with a spicy sauce and a topping. Buldak-bokkeum-myeon became famous due to the Fire Noodle Challenge, a viral challenge where people film themselves attempting to complete a packet or bowl of these noodles.[5][6]

In 2017, the Buldak range accounted for more than 85% of Samyang Food's total exports and 55% of total sales.
