The latest craze taking over social media is none other than Korean spicy tuna (Gochu Tuna) — and it all started with none other than Cardi B herself! πΆπ https://www.ddaily.co.kr/page/view/2025102414220907057 π§‘ Cardi B’s “H-Mart Find” That Went Viral During a recent Instagram Live, global pop star Cardi B shared her newest obsession: Korean spicy tuna from H-Mart!

Gochu Tuna (κ³ μΆμ°ΈμΉ) is spicy Korean canned tuna made by Dongwon F&B, Korea’s leading tuna brand since 1982. π Unlike the plain tuna often used for salads or sandwiches in the West, Gochu Tuna is seasoned with Korean red chili, garlic, and soy sauce — giving it a flavorful, slightly spicy kick that pairs beautifully with rice and seaweed. It’s been a beloved comfort food in Korea for decades — a quick meal for students, hikers, and busy workers. Now, thanks to Cardi B, it’s suddenly the viral K-snack of 2025! β¨ https://www.nocutnews.co.kr/news/6418120?utm_source=naver&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=20251024021359 π₯ The Power of “Cardi B Effect” on K-Food This isn’t Cardi B’s first time starting a K-Food craze. Last year, she tried Carbo Buldak Ramen (the creamy spicy noodles from Samyang) and caused a mini Buldak shortage in the U.S. ππ₯ She also once posted herself drinking Korean red ginseng, saying it “works better than coffee.” βπͺ Now with Gochu Tuna, she’s created another wave of global interest — proving once again that social media + K-Food = π₯ unstoppable combination! https://n.news.naver.com/article/421/0008561061?ntype=RANKING π How Big Is Dongwon Tuna?
