Strictly speaking, if they've transmigrated into a new body, they should react to very spicy food the way people from none spicy food cultures do.
Since they no longer have a mouth that has been desensitised to capsaicin, they should be in quite a lot of pain and incapable of actually tasting anything but fire.
This is a physical thing, you can't just soul transfer your way out of that
Actually! i finally saw this thing being discussed somewhere, I always get this second-hand embarrassment when they are a little too much eager and amazed by "korean food" I mean okay!! it might be like that for many Asians out of korea, as mostly similar food (spice level) is there in asia, but that's a 180degree turn for western countries, and almost/every author is like this when it comes to korean food, i mean it's ok it's your country your novel, but it's become funny now how they just show every western person who's barely had any spices feel like like that.Σ(  ̄□ ̄||)
Yes! It getting embarassing tbh. And surprisingly i once found a manhwa that the transmigrated villain trying impress peoples with 'new' korean foods and getting backfired instead lmao. The crowds get poisoned by spicyness
The mc recooked the cuisine and literally rinse it to cleanse the chili. That was refreshing ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
I forgot the title but mc had pink hair

Sometimes I wonder why alot of authors manhwa are so confident that everyone will like Korean cuisine. After all, every country has different taste preferences. That’s why many restaurants, when introducing foreign dishes, adjust the seasoning to suit local taste. If they want to feature Korean cuisine in manhwa, I hope they also serve a unique blend of ingredients tailored to local tastes, making the concept feel more logical...
