Many people eat the Korean pork barbecue, samgyeopsal (삼겹살). The literal meaning is “three (sam; 삼) layered (gyeop; 겹) flesh (sal; 살)”, referring to what appears to be three layers that are visible in the meat.

This night, I ate ogyeopsal (오겹살), which means it has five layers. I actually don’t think it looks too different from samgyeopsal, but yes, I think it might be more delicious. Somehow it tasted like butter, even though the meat is not seasoned.
