[Korean Food] King Dumpling Tteokguk, Assorted Jeon & Japchae GS25

February 15, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing GS25’s new Lunar New Year items: Royal Dumpling Rice Cake Soup for Seollal, and two varieties—Assorted Jeon & Japchae. For the 2026 Seollal holiday, GS25 was the first among convenience store chains to roll out the widest range of offerings. GS25 has long released holiday lunch boxes, assorted jeon, and occasionally tteok-mandu-guk as well, so the lineup is generally quite solid. This time, you can also pre-order through the GS25 convenience store app, so you can place an order and eat it as needed. I pre-ordered this time and tried it right away. Shall we take a look at what these items are?

[Korean Food] Lunch Box of the Month: February Lunar New Year Special GS25

February 14, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing GS25’s new lunchbox menu: the “Lunchbox of the Month” February Lunar New Year Special. Starting in 2026, they launched the Lunchbox of the Month series, and in January they released the Value-for-Money Edition. As I suspected, for February they’ve put out a light holiday-themed lunchbox. This one seems to have made a few small changes to the nine-compartment lunchbox set that GS25 has traditionally released for each holiday. The overall lineup was pretty solid. Let’s take a look at what’s inside.

[Korean Food] Kkanbu Dosirak (Seven-Eleven)

January 22, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new menu item from 7-Eleven is the Kkanbu Lunchbox, a Chinese-style set meal bento. At first, I wondered if it was a collaboration with Kkanbu Chicken, but that wasn’t the case at all. It’s a set meal that combines spicy fried chicken (Kkanpunggi) and mapo tofu. The value for money is fairly average, and the lineup is decent, so it makes a solid option for a meal. Let’s take a closer look at what it’s like.

[Korean Food] Hearty Cheese Cream Pasta (CU)

January 22, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new pasta item from CU convenience store is the Hearty Cheese Cream Pasta. It’s the first pasta release in CU’s Hearty series, the standard lunchbox lineup that began a refresh starting in Q4 2025. A generous amount of cheese is added to a rich, thick cream sauce for a dense and creamy flavor, and crushed red pepper brings a mild kick without being too overwhelming. It also offers pretty good value for the price. Now, let’s take a closer look at what it’s like.

January 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing a new 7-Eleven menu item: Spam Arrabbiata Pasta. As part of the Matjeil series, 7-Eleven collaborated with CJ to release several lunchbox items. Today, I’ll be reviewing one of them—the pasta option. It’s a lunchbox concept featuring pasta with a classic arrabbiata sauce, topped with Spam cut into cube-shaped pieces. Let’s take a closer look at what this menu is like.
