There are a variety of street food options in Gunsan, but my personal favorite is fish bread. And no, it isn't bread with fish in it. The bread itself IS a fish!
Okay, not a real fish. It's essentially a waffle made in an iron with a fish mold. You can buy them in little plastic tents, which, in the winter, are hot and steamy from the fry. You can get three fish for 1,000 won, which is approximately one dollar (I use rough mental estimation here). They come in two varieties: bean paste-filled, which is brownish-red and slightly gritty, and 슈크림 (this is my best guess on how to spell it; it sounds like shukeureem to me), which is bright yellow and gloppy.
I personally enjoy the yellow goo. So strange, and yet so good! Perfect for a cheap, hot-off-the-griddle snack in winter.
