I have tried the spicy Buldak ones, they are sweet. But I am assuming all of them will be a mix of sweet n spicy since that's how they are meant to be? So no ramyeon for me.

I have a habit of adding chili powder to everything 🙈 I tried Nongshim, Samyang and Paldo so far. Maybe you can try Buldak fire ramyeon... something like 3X spicy🤔

I casually add half a teaspoon of chili powder to Nongshim kimchi ramyeon and classic ramyeon😆

I just need them to not be sweet. Buldak is sweet.

I dont like to mix sweet and salty. I hate the flavour combination.

Exol said Nongshim isnt sweet, will try it.

Is kimchi sweet? Even a tiny bit sweet?

Yes. Sugar is one of the ingredients. but also, if we talk about the cabbage itself, it has sugar content so a tad bit of sweetness is always there in Kimchi.

Honestly, I don't know how to answer this. Ramen is one of the major food here, be it taken as a time-pass meal like Maggi or as an actual meal of the day. Hence there are so many types of it. The reason I say this is a difficult question is that tastebuds differ from one person to another, hence what I may suggest to be not sweet might feel sweet to you. However, I personally prefer the spicy buldalk, shin (the brands you mentioned) and jin ramen.
