Went to an amazing authentic Korean restaurant the other day. We had bossam (steamed pork belly wrapped with kimchi and salted napa cabbage), homemade tofu, and chung guk jjang (which is really really stinky miso stew) with barley rice.
If you think Korean food is stinky, chung guk jjang is probably our stinkiest food. I remember when I was 11 and my family moved into our first home from the apartments we lived in, the first meal we made was chung guk jjang. It is so smelly that you need at least half an American acre in order to make it. So smelly yet so tasty once it hits your lips.
