In the January-May period, exports of ramyeon and kimchi jumped 36 percent and 37 percent on-year, respectively, to $249 million and $162 million, according to the Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation.

根據「韓國農水產食品流通公社」，1至5月期間，南韓泡麵和泡菜的外銷，分別年增36%與37%，達到2.49億美元及1.62億美元。

Higher demand for ramyeon was also helped by the global popularity of Chapaguri, a signature noodle dish from the Oscar-winning film "Parasite."

南韓泡麵的需求增加，也是受到「浣熊炸醬麵」在全球聲名大噪的助長，此種泡麵是從贏得奧斯卡金像獎的（南韓）電影「寄身上流」裡看到的代表性麵食。

Sales of the two food items have been on the rise as more people opt to stay home and order food online amid virus fears, it said.

該公社說，這兩種食品的銷售已在上升，由於疫情期間，更多人選擇待在家和網路訂餐。
