I do love nangmyeon, Korean cold noodles, a lot and a lot. To be more specific, there are two different kinds of nangmyeon, which are Hamheung style and Pyungyang style. You might assume that they are the name of cities in North Korea, and yeah, you are right, as nangmyeon is North Korean food. I especially prefer the latter which has more plain taste. I guess most nangmyeon you usually have would be Hamheung style as Hamheung nangmyeon places are predominant. Thus, the taste of Pyungyang nangmyeon maybe new to you. Indeed, quite many Koreans do not prefer that much Pyungyang nangmyeon because they are unfamiliar with its taste. I would say there are likes and dislikes when it comes to the taste of Pyungyang nangmyeon. But if you would like to try something new Korean food, it would be worth trying!
I ordered Mulnangmyeon, nangmyeon in ice broth which was amazing. If you fancy having something spicy, also Bibim nangmyeon (spicy cold noodles without broth) is available.
I hope you like Pyungyang nangmyeon with its softer noodles and milder broth. Enjoy!
