Nope. I do think Korean food already has enough salt though.
I can't handle Korean nor Sichuan spicy either.
Mo mom is a great cook but she complains she doesn't know how to cook for me because I've been scolding her adding too much salt and oil in food for decades.

Are you sure your heart is still healthy and blood pressure normal?
I have to put more water to balance the salty taste. If the Nissan and Maruchan are the pre-seasoned type (i.e. seasoning is mixed with the noodles so you just add hot water. Not sure what's the right wording), I'd have to make it a "superbowl."
OTOH, my tolerance for sugar is much higher.
