(Here in North America, they might heard as black bean paste noodles, but slightly different to express.) It is a very popular Korean menu. In my teenage years, we ate Jjajangmyeon on special days such as graduation days, birthdays etc. I remember that I also had it with my parents after my elementary school graduation ceremony.
