I have also been looking for this recipe. I made it up as soon as I found the recipe. I decided to cook some of the cakes on my Gorge Forman Grill. The grilled cakes are on the left, and the fried ones are on the right. I preferred the taste of the grilled cakes.

Thank you so much for the recipe! My Korean wife has made them from boxed kits and were very good, but this one is more like the street vendors in Korea!

I was in Korea and had this for the first time. AWESOME. The only thing different is that here after cooking it they cut it open and put sunflower seeds inside. Sounds odd but is worth it. It wasn't cut into to pieces just enough room to stuff the seeds.
