Buldak Spicy Challenge Grand Finale at Akropole Latvija

The Grand Finale had brave contestants, a curious crowd, and prizes that kept the energy and competition high!

What made it extra special is that contestants had to cook their own ramen on the spot, showing everyone – both in the mall and on TikTok Live – how fast and easy it is to prepare Buldak using the LAZO machine. Once people saw it, they wanted to try it themselves.

Right next to the action, the Tangle tasting stand kept the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Shoppers came over, sampled something new, and left with a very real taste of what we bring to the market.

And the moment everyone’s still talking about: the Spicy Challenge winner finished a full bowl of Buldak spicy noodles in just 26 seconds. No joke, it was over almost before it started.

The noodles were brutally spicy (you could see it in the finalists’ eyes), but the smiles were even bigger, especially for those who walked away with Buldak sauces as prizes!

Thanks again to Hooligaan for organizing this great event – we’re always happy to bring the heat with Buldak and keep things spicy.
