Thousands of reviews complement the gooey harmony of corn and cream, which taste just like corn soup. Its affordable price, which is 1,000 KRW (approximately $1) also make a good reason to give a go.
On the other hand, some of the people express disappointments about the product, writing it didn’t meet the expectation. According to some reviews, the Korean version of Corn Pie lacks flavor, compared to the original.
