기타 표현
저 [땅콩] 알레르기 있어요.
juh [ttang-kong] al-le-reu-gi i-ssuh-yo
I have a [peanut] allergy.
Survival Tip
Allergies are serious! Say this BEFORE ordering. It helps to look up your specific allergy words like [Shrimp] (Sae-u) or [Peach] (Bok-sung-a) in advance.
기타 표현
[고기]는 빼 주세요.
[go-gi]neun ppae ju-se-yo
Please remove the [meat].
Survival Tip
Use this to exclude ingredients from mixed dishes like Bibimbap or Kimbap. Swap 'Gogi' (Meat) with 'O-i' (Cucumber) or 'Dang-geun' (Carrot)!
기타 표현
이거에 [돼지고기] 들어 있어요?
ee-guh-eh [dwae-ji-go-gi] deu-ruh i-ssuh-yo
Does this contain [pork]?
Survival Tip
Essential for Muslims or those avoiding pork. Pork is often hidden in Korean stews (Jjigae) or soups, so always double-check.
기타 표현
[육수]에 고기 들어가나요?
[yuk-su]-eh go-gi deu-ruh-ga-na-yo
Is there meat in the [broth]?
Survival Tip
Even vegetable dishes often use meat or anchovy broth. If you are a strict vegan, this is the most critical question. Check if they have 'Chae-su' (Vegetable stock).
기타 표현
제발 [오이]는 빼 주세요.
je-bal [o-i]neun ppae ju-se-yo
Please, PLEASE remove the [cucumber].
Survival Tip
Korean Kimbap and cold noodles are full of cucumbers. If you hate them, add 'Je-bal' (Please/Begging) to show you're serious. The staff will smile and definitely ensure it's cucumber-free.
기타 표현
저도 먹을 수 있어요?
juh-do muh-geul su i-ssuh-yo
Can I eat this too (with my restrictions)?
Survival Tip
The final check after listing all your restrictions. If the staff says 'Ne' (Yes), you are safe to eat!
