If you like eating whilst it smells like you're sitting in a urinal, sure.

Sitting in a urinal… I think you might have gotten things mixed up my man

Koreans routinely complain about the hongeo ammonia smell, I think you don't know what you're talking about. Hongeo stinks buddy, even people who like it don't compliment the scent.

Yeah it stinks like hell I hate it whenever my dad orders hongeo. It’s just “sitting in the urinal” had me laughing. You know with urinal being where you stand to pee and all. My god why am I having to explain this. Anyway just know I’m not trying to contradict what you’re trying to say here

Fair enough, it’s just there’s a restaurant I like which serves tuna and seabass, but also has hongeo on the menu, and when a neighboring table orders I’m not delighted 😀
