The "Steak" Upgrade
Channel your inner Parasite (the movie) by topping these premium noodles with grilled cubes of steak or brisket. The "The Black" broth pairs beautifully with the richness of beef.

Chapagetti The Black is a "grown-up" version of Korea’s favorite Jajang-style instant noodle. To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Nongshim released this premium edition featuring non-fried air-dried noodles (Gunmyeon). It delivers a much richer, deeper roasted black bean flavor while significantly reducing the fat and calorie content compared to the original, making it a more sophisticated and lighter way to enjoy the classic Jajangmyeon taste.
Noodle: Wheat flour, modified starch, potato starch, vegetable oil powder, eggshell calcium, refined salt, acidity regulators, marigold coloring. Soup Base: Powdered Jjajang (Chunjang, wheat), stir-fried soybean paste powder, refined sugar, beef bone flavor powder, stir-fried seasoning corn powder, onion flavor powder. Seasoning Oil: A special Jjajang-flavored oil blend to add a smoky, roasted aroma. Flakes: Textured vegetable protein (soy, wheat gluten), dehydrated cabbage, fried potato cubes, dried onions, and carrots.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Because the noodles are air-dried, they are sensitive to humidity. Ensure the pack is kept away from moisture.
Contains: Wheat, Soy, Egg (eggshell calcium), and Beef. May Contain: Traces of shrimp, milk, peanuts, sesame, mustard, and molluscs (based on shared manufacturing facility warnings). Dietary Note: While lower in fat, this product is not vegan or vegetarian due to the beef bone and eggshell components.

Thinly sliced cucumbers or a side of yellow pickled radish (Danmuji) are the traditional way to balance the savory-sweet black bean sauce.
Add a fried egg with a runny yolk on top. The yolk adds a luxurious creaminess that complements the air-dried noodles perfectly.
You get all the deep, smoky flavor of Chajang with 25% fewer calories and almost half the fat of the original.
The air-dried noodles provide a "snap" and chewiness that mimics the handmade noodles found in Korean-Chinese restaurants.
Larger flakes and a darker, glossier sauce make this feel like a gourmet meal rather than a quick instant snack.
