Seriously, ate these a couple times in Japan because they're literally the cheapest outside of random store brands and they always tasted cheap as fuck compared to Nissin. Nissin is totally different in Japan btw, you literally can't get their specialty ones here and they're only slightly more expensive. FamiMa, Lawson's, and 7-11 will each have their own proprietary Nissin ramen cups featuring local ramen shops, I stockpiled the Kikanbo spicy miso ones that were sold at Famima despite the fact that I lived down the street from the actual Kikanbo shop, they were just that fucking good. shin ramyun is literal dogshit in comparison

people like you going on and on about shitty cheap noodles that people buy in case the power goes out for a week and they want a little stockpile in the back of the pantry are sad. you have no idea the world of good instant ramen you're missing. if you weren't such a rural hillbilly, you could visit a japanese store and buy actual fresh men with concentrated broth included (powder packets aren't a thing in Japan unless you're buying the literal cheapest dogshit on the shelf, such as shin ramyun). but no, you're lazy, and stupid, and you basically cheerlead for what is the equivalent of some store brand cola, and when someone's like "oh damn dude you should try real coca-cola" your response is "i like being poor and tasteless, i refuse". so have at it hoss, someone has to buy that shit, more for you right?

shinramyen is the most default cup ramyen korea other than samyang ramyen if youre in jeollado apparently. i miss the massive variety of similar, but slightly different ramyens there as qell as the regularly popping up novelty ones.
shinramyen is okay, but very far from the best when you can get ridiculously packed or strongly flavoured ramyens if tou bothered looki g op
-chamggae ramyen (strong sesame seed flavour, multiple pakcets of shit to add. one of the best. noodles are kinda old fashioned tho)
-budaejjigae ramyen - you get a 2hole bunch of freeze dried meat and things to add. oily and nice. new product
-jja wang - greatly improved japagetti with actual freeze dried peas n vegetables. its literally the closest thing to instant jjajjangmyun

those are just some i remmeber, you need to research op because saying some very generic, found everywhere ramyen is the best is something a 10 year old retarded amerifat would do.
