Its SHU is measured to be 4,404 in the original package. Its literal translation means: stir-fried chicken noodles. It does not have a soup satchet, unlike most ramyeons. It only has a sauce satchet, like a stir-fry. Its flakes are made up of dried laver and sesame seeds.
Buldak Bokkeum Myeon became famous due to the Fire Noodle Challenge, a viral challenge where people film themselves attempting to complete a bowl of Buldak Bokkeum Myeon. In November 2016, Samyang Food obtained a halal certificate for Buldak Bokkeum Myeon from the Korea Muslim Federation Halal Committee.
In 2011, when ramen based on soup was popular, Samyang Food President Jung Soo Kim passed by Myeongdong Road and found that people were crowded in spicy chicken restaurant by chance. He got an idea here and thought that spicy can be tasty, and he started to develop Buldak Bokkeum Myeon with the motto of "Spicy, Chicken, Fried Noodles". The marketing department and the research institute staff tasted delicious spicy foods such as roast chicken, lobster beef, chicken wings, etc. Also, they tasted and research various kinds of spicy peppers in lots of country and tried hard to develop 'delicious and spicy sauce'. In addition, tasting 2 tons of hot sauce and 1200 chicken dishes, and after 12 months of research, they found the best mixing ratio and developed the fried chicken fried noodles.
