Pork Rib and Kimchi Stew Recipe

Muk Eun Ji Kimchi Jjim

Hello,

I'm a food influencer,

@Powmom's Cuisine.

I woke up on a Sunday morning to the loud sound of metal plates falling.

When I looked outside to see what was happening,

I saw that they were removing metal plates for parking lot construction in the building across the street.

It was 5:30 AM on a Sunday morning,

I think it's too much to wake me up from a deep sleep.

I lay there half-asleep,

but it was so noisy that I couldn't fall back asleep.

So, since I was already awake, I decided to prepare breakfast early.

Today's breakfast is pork rib kimchi stew.

It's been a while since I had kimchi jjigae, and my freezer is full of ribs,

so I decided to make it.

Because they were frozen pork ribs,

I defrosted them in the refrigerator the day before.

If you bought frozen pork ribs, please defrost them in the refrigerator.

When aged kimchi and pork ribs come together,

you get an explosion of savory flavor in this pork rib kimchi stew.

Made in a pressure cooker, the meat falls right off the bone.

Muk Eun Ji Kimchi Jjim, a bowl of rice is gone in a flash.

Shall we make this rib dish together?

Watch the video first.

Ingredients:

2 racks of ribs (22 pieces)

1/2 head of aged kimchi (Muk Eun Ji)

1/2 cup (100ml) kimchi juice

4 cups (800ml) water

2 handfuls of oyster mushrooms

2 green onions

Ingredients for blanching ribs:

20 peppercorns

3-4 bay leaves

Kimchi Stew Seasoning:

2 Tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili powder)

1 Tbsp Korean soy sauce (Guk Ganjang)

1/2 Tbsp salted shrimp (Saeu-jeot)

1 Tbsp minced garlic

1 Tbsp cooking wine (Mirim)

2 Tbsp oligosaccharide (or corn syrup)

Final seasoning:

1 Tbsp fish sauce

Salt to taste

Turn on the gas and bring the kimchi stew to a boil.

Once the pressure regulator starts to spin, cook on high heat for 5 minutes.

Then, reduce the heat to medium and cook for another 3 minutes.

Turn off the heat and release the pressure.

If you want the pressure to release naturally, cook on high heat for 5 minutes.

Then, turn off the heat and wait.

8. Final Seasoning

Once it boils, taste and adjust the seasoning.

Because the taste of kimchi varies from house to house,

it may be bland.

If it tastes bland, add 1 tablespoon of fish sauce and a little salt to taste.

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
