The Viral BTS Jungkook 'Bul-Mayo Perilla Oil Noodles' Recipe: A Fusion Delight You Can Make at Home

If you are a fan of K-pop, you have likely seen BTS member Jungkook breaking the internet with his simple yet addictive late-night snack recipes. Among all his creations, the one that stands out for its unique flavor profile is his "Bul-Mayo Perilla Oil Noodles."

Homemade Bul-Mayo Perilla Oil Noodles inspired by BTS Jungkook's viral recipe, topped with roasted seaweed and sesame seeds
The viral sensation: Jungkook’s Bul-Mayo Perilla Oil Noodles. A perfect fusion of savory perilla oil and creamy, spicy Buldak sauce—ready in just 15 minutes.


Combining the earthy, nutty aroma of Korean perilla oil with the creamy, spicy kick of a fusion sauce, this dish is a dream come true for foodies. If you are living in the U.S. and want to recreate this viral dish, this guide is for you. We’ll show you how to source the best ingredients at your local stores and master this recipe in under 15 minutes.

Why Jungkook's Perilla Oil Noodles are Trending

This dish is the definition of "fusion comfort food." It takes traditional Korean Mak-guksu (buckwheat noodles) and elevates it with a sauce that appeals to the American palate—a savory, creamy, and spicy blend.

  • Nutty & Earthy: The perilla oil provides a depth of flavor that is hard to find in other cuisines.

  • Creamy & Spicy: The combination of mayonnaise and the world-famous "Buldak" (Fire) sauce creates a flavor profile that is creamy, rich, and intensely spicy.

  • Perfect for U.S. Kitchens: Once you have the core Korean ingredients, the rest can be found at any major retailer.

Shopping Tips: Finding Ingredients in the U.S.

Don't worry if you aren't close to a Korean market. Here is how you can find everything you need:

  • The Noodles: While authentic buckwheat noodles are best, you can use soba noodles found in the "International/Asian" aisle at Walmart or Whole Foods.

  • The Sauces (The Heart of the Dish):

    • Buldak Sauce: This can be found on Amazon or in the Asian section of large retailers. If you can't find it, a mix of sriracha and a pinch of chili flakes is a decent alternative for a milder version.

    • Perilla Oil: This is often labeled as "Perilla Oil" or "Roasted Sesame Oil" (though perilla is distinct). Check the international aisle at your local grocery store or order online to get that authentic nutty punch.

  • Mayonnaise: Stick to your favorite brand—Hellmann’s or Duke’s works perfectly here!

[Recipe] Jungkook's Viral Bul-Mayo Perilla Oil Noodles

Ingredients (Serves 1)

  • 1 bundle of Soba or Buckwheat noodles

  • 2 tbsp Perilla oil

  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp Mayonnaise

  • 1 tbsp Buldak (Fire) sauce (adjust for your spice tolerance!)

  • Optional: A sprinkle of roasted seaweed strips and toasted sesame seeds for crunch.

Instructions

  1. Cook the Noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the buckwheat/soba noodles according to the package instructions. Once done, rinse them under cold water immediately to keep them firm and chewy.

The noodles appear firm and textured. Steam is rising from the colander, contrasting with the cold water stream. Beside the sink, the light-colored Dutch oven from previous steps sits on the countertop. A package of Japanese buckwheat noodles is visible on the edge of the sink, and to the left, the small ceramic bowl of sea salt and the hand-written card "THE SUGA SECRET" remain on the countertop in their consistent positions. The background continues to feature the blurred copper pots and kitchen window, maintaining visual continuity across the cooking process.

  2. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the perilla oil, soy sauce, mayonnaise, and Buldak sauce until smooth and creamy.

Positioned on the light-colored stone countertop is a small, handcrafted ceramic bowl, distinct from the salt bowl. A silver wire whisk is actively mixing the contents, creating a smooth, creamy, reddish-orange sauce. The ingredients—a small bottle of perilla oil with a green label, a bottle of soy sauce, a squeeze bottle of mayonnaise, and a bottle of Buldak sauce with its fiery chicken logo—are partially combined, with visible swirls and streaks of the different components. The small ceramic bowl of sea salt and the hand-written card "THE SUGA SECRET" from image_9.png remain in their consistent positions to the left. The background, with the blurred hanging copper pots and the window, is maintained, keeping the visual continuity of the cooking process. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the glossy texture and vibrant color of the sauce as it becomes homogenous. The counter shows minor, realistic splatters from the mixing. The focus is sharp on the whisk and the sauce.

  3. Combine: Place the drained noodles in a bowl. Pour the sauce over the noodles.

A hand, with a silver ring identical to the one in image_9.png, holds the small, handcrafted ceramic bowl from image_11.png. The hand is carefully tilting the bowl, causing a rich, creamy, reddish-orange stream of the perilla and Buldak sauce to be poured directly over a generous mound of the dark, textured buckwheat soba noodles from image_9.png. The noodles are held in a larger, rustic ceramic serving bowl, positioned centrally on the light-colored stone countertop. The sauce is visibly coating the top layer of the noodles, creating a glossy contrast. A few drops of the sauce have fallen onto the countertop surface near minor spatters from previous steps. The original small ceramic bowl of sea salt and the hand-written card "THE SUGA SECRET" from image_9.png and image_11.png remain in their consistent positions to the left. The background, with the blurred hanging copper pots and the window, is maintained, keeping the visual continuity of the cooking process. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the textures of the noodles and the glossy, vibrant sauce. The camera angle is slightly elevated, looking down into the serving bowl.

  4. Toss: Using chopsticks or tongs, toss the noodles thoroughly until every strand is coated in that glossy, spicy-creamy sauce.

A hand, with the same silver ring from image_9.png, holds a pair of dark wood chopsticks. The chopsticks are actively lifting and tossing a mound of dark buckwheat soba noodles within the rustic ceramic serving bowl from image_13.png. The noodles are thoroughly coated in the glossy, reddish-orange perilla and Buldak sauce from image_13.png, appearing textured and savory. A gentle plume of steam rises from the hot, sauced noodles, catching the light. A few small droplets of the sauce are realistically suspended in the air and splattered on the light-colored stone countertop near the bowl. The original small ceramic bowl of sea salt and the hand-written card "THE SUGA SECRET" remain in their consistent positions to the left. The background, with the blurred hanging copper pots and the window, is maintained, keeping the visual continuity of the cooking process. The lighting is soft and directional, making the glossy sauce and the texture of the noodles gleam. The camera angle is slightly elevated, looking down into the active tossing process. The depth of field is shallow, making the noodles, chopsticks, and the hand the intense focus.

A delicate plume of steam rises from the dish, catching the soft, directional light. The original small ceramic bowl of sea salt and the hand-written card "THE SUGA SECRET" remain in their consistent positions to the left on the light-colored stone countertop. The background, with the blurred hanging copper pots and the kitchen window, is maintained, preserving the visual continuity of this culinary sequence. The focus is sharp on the action of garnishing, capturing the final texture and details of the dish.
