Nongshim Neoguri Spicy Seafood Ramen Noodle Soup, Bold, Spicy Chili Peppers

"Dive into a Seafood Spicy Sensation with Neoguri:

Company Background: Nongshim

• Nongshim Co., Ltd. was founded in 1965 in South Korea (originally Lotte Food Industrial Co.) and rebranded in 1978.

• It is the largest instant noodle manufacturer in Korea and one of the biggest globally, known for hits like Shin Ramyun, Neoguri, Chapaghetti, and more.

• Nongshim introduced Neoguri in 1982, pioneering the spicy seafood ramen category, and it remains beloved domestically and internationally.

• The brand’s success is driven by their signature thick, chewy noodles, robust broths, and bold Korean flavors.

 What is Shin Neoguri?

• Shin Neoguri is a fusion of two of Nongshim’s most iconic noodles:

  • Shin Ramyun (spicy, beefy broth)

  • Neoguri (spicy seafood broth with kombu [seaweed] flavor)

• It combines Shin’s famous chili heat with Neoguri’s deep seafood umami, creating a spicy seafood noodle soup with rich complexity.

• The product is marketed as delivering a “spicy kick with umami-rich seafood broth” and is especially popular among fans of Korean-style seafood stews.

 Flavor Profile

• Broth:

  • Spicy and savory, but with pronounced seafood notes (anchovy, bonito, kelp).

  • Kombu (kelp) adds a natural oceanic sweetness.

  • Balanced chili heat (spicier than regular Neoguri, less than Shin Black).

• Noodles:

  • Thick, udon-style wheat noodles with a springy, chewy texture designed to match hearty broths.
