It's not uncommon in Korea to have live squid with gochujang(red bean paste) as the dipping sauce. Personally, I prefer the squid to be cook before I eat it. Some people do enjoy it and I guess it's personal preferences and culture thing.

Yeah I can't eat the squid live so we usually cook it.

my dad had it once. he said it was impossible to chew and he didnt want to seem rude in front of the guests so he swallowed it whole

0__o my mom likes it cause its "so fresshhhh" lol i think it'd be so slimy and wiggly

O________O
I would never be able to eat that. Just thinking about it moving around in my mouth... =x

The little girl was even eating it?!

Yuck, I will never eat raw squid no matter how good it is.

Wen yew odda Negafuki Surprise, it come wif free Bud Light!

so good! wrapping it around the chopstick is so fun! but its an acquired taste i suppose. all my friends look at me like i'm insane when i eat it though

i wonder what it feels like when it's sliding down the throat...

^ kinda cold and wettish..my mom tells me to chew it until its dead

I don't mind eating it

but I doubt it taste of anything but a bit salty and very chewy :/

yeah ive seen it and my dad has had it before but we dont eat it often since we dont live by the sea or anything and live in america. i would rather eat something dead.

people only eat it with certain kinds of octopus though. It has to be small.

it's banging.

my jaw dropped when I read that

I dont think I can imagine myself eating it when its still ALIVE

I hated the taste and feel of it down my throat. I had to eat it when I was with my host family in Japan years ago. It would be rude if I didn't eat it. It's not for everyone, let's just say that I didn't feel very well later on that night.

Haha. Poor Oscar. I never tried raw octopus before. I always have mine like fried or something before I eat it.

yea.........no. I prefer my wriggling cephalopods(I think?) dead and cooked thank you very much.

Sometimes i'm suprised at what asian people eat.. the way it wriggles in your mouth makes me want to throw up >_>

i ate a live octopi once!! it was good i guess.. but it felt weird x_X like it was still moving in my mouth & i had to bite it really hard... i felt so sad when my dad started cutting the legs... T_T i was afraid i might just swallow it & it might get stuck in my throat & i'll die.......

I don't think I would I'd be afraid of choking on it and dying. This show I was watching was talking about it and a guy actually died from eating live Octopi because it suctioned onto his throat and caused him to sufficate.

Oh my, I was just watching this when Anthony Bourdain went to Korea..
I can never eat it raw.
It's still moving.. and it clings
gahh, I can't ever eat anything raw.

i'm still thinking on whether i'd try it once or not... x.x
cos.... i can eat raw, sometimes... BUT.. this one's ALIVE! ALIVE!
Errr... and the octopus's tentacles would cling to your mouth, and especially tighter cos it doesn't wanna be eaten... errr...
i'd still think about it. x.x hahaha...

I love cooked octupi and wouldn't mind trying wriggly&raw ones if I didn't have to do the skinning.


Maybe I should go with one tentacle each time and I'll remember to chew properly if I ever have the chance to try live Octopi.

AHHAHA when i first saw teh litto octopi the first thing I said was, "OMG HOW CUUUUUTE!" Actually.. when they ate it, it didn't look too bad, but then again I dislike raw squid... so... raw octopus wouldn't be too good for me.

i would be soo scared to touch it, let alone eat it.
i remember in my name is kim sam soon, and that one girl was eating something, and daniel henney goes, it's still moving lol.
i didn't know they eat ones that are that large.

is it that thing that jung reo won made daniel eat in "my name is kim sam soon"?

so scary coz it still moves and wriggles and stuff

Wow....:X I do not remember eating something alive in my life...I might be able to eat it but risk choking x__x

i saw it last night on the travel channel...lol i'd give it a go. i love fresh sushi. lol

It sounds pretty good..I think contestants on The amazing Race had to eat them when they were in Korea lol.

LOOOL!! i remember it from Boo Hahl, i think...

they had a shot of the characters dining and everything and in the corner of the screen, something on a plate moved and i flipped. -o-

That's how i learned that korean people eat live octupus. O_O;;



would i ever?

Hmm...

i dont know. -o-

whoa that's extremely. Live octopus?? that's freaky though! I love octopus, but only when they're dead and cooked.

I think I'll only eat it if it was cooked.

i was on korea at that time, n the tour guide suggest that we should try eating their delicacies...n there's this one big squid still alive, i was like . Then the aljuhma cut the tentacles and put it into our mouth, you can actually feel it's sucking ur tounge.

AHH! That was the most weirdest thing i've ever seen..

Looks like good eating... for those with more sophisticated palettes than me. I love squid & octopus but make mine just died & fried please.

i love to try it one day....jus wonder how long will it take for it to stop moving??

that reminds me, hyde and tetsu from L'Arc~en~Ciel ate at a Korean restaurant while they were in Korea. They ordered the live octopus (I think it was this or something that was still alive) and only hyde tried it. It didn't look fun to eat. lol

i think that's gotta be real hard to digest...just looking at it makes me have indigestion iono maybe if it's cooked or something then im down for it

oh ewwwwww gross! wont it be slimy? skldfjslkjfkd ugh. and the legs are wriggling in your mouth ewww

my mom lovessss it rofl haha XD
i hate squid/octopus period. i don't like the smell of it haha

i like to like poke it with chopsticks hahahaha XD

live octopus is a no show for me lol. If i was forced to eat it then i guess i would. Can u guys feel it wiggling in your stomach ?? AHH it's sooo scary ._.

i've never tried live squid, but i think i'll prefer to have mine cooked

i love it.. i want some now

OMFG I love SanNakji.....but everyone I go a HwetJib they're always out...>=(

hmm.. i don't think i could eat it live

yeah if it's raw, i wouldn't mind trying it! but it would be quite a challenge to eat it alive poor octopus

...i wouldnt mind o__O;;

as long as the sauce is strong enough to kill the bacteria

dun they release a kind of secretion? so.. arent u eating that with the rest of the octopus?
