The other day I tried Korean broiled meat at a mama-and-papa restaurant that is near my office. This restaurant doesn't look good and I didn't want to go there, but I heard that they serve very good dishes and I decided to go there.
As for Korean cuisine, I guess the king of it would be broiled meat. There are many broiled meat restaurants in Japan too and I thought there's not so much difference between Japanese and Korean roasted meat.
The picture shows the Korean style grilling. The meat has been immersed in basting for a couple of days before serving. I ate grilled meat in leaves just like a wrapping. The green leaves in the picture are for wrapping hot meat. It was really delicious. Soy sauce is often used in Japanese and Korean dishes. It may be the reason why I like Korean dishes.
