A TikToker named Javeria Wasim in Toronto has filed a lawsuit against Samyang Foods, claiming that eating 'Buldak Bokkeum Myun', a popular spicy Korean instant noodle, caused her to develop a stomach ulcer. Despite the lawsuit, she continues to post videos of herself enjoying the noodles. The term 'mukbang' used in the context refers to videos where people eat large amounts of food while interacting with their audience, a trend that originated in South Korea. Wasim previously gained attention for claiming that she broke her jaw while eating a popular candy. Meanwhile, Samyang Foods reports substantial growth in sales, with the spicy noodles being particularly popular worldwide, especially in China and the US.
