미니붕어빵 귀여워서 사진찍는데 우리집 개가 먼저 맛봄;;;

💡 Why does a fish-shaped pastry deserve a photo shoot?
붕어빵 (bungeoppang) is the sound of Korean winter: a carp-shaped waffle filled with sweet red bean, sold hot from street carts. The mini version comes by the bagful, so it's snack-cute rather than dessert-serious.vs. the US: like photographing the season's first pumpkin spice cup.Klore note
