Hot Pots around Portland?
that's what i thought the first time i read it, but then i figureed it out. Krn = Korean 
Shabu Shabu. They're both Japanese but are slightly different. Han Gooks may have their own version of hot pot, but it isn't called that. The English name itself is a phonetic translation of what it's called in the Japanese language.

Shabu-shabu (しゃぶしゃぶ ,, also spelled syabu-syabu?) is a Japanese variant of hot pot. The dish is related to sukiyaki in style, where both use thinly sliced meat and vegetables, and usually served with dipping sauces. However, it is starkly different in taste; shabu-shabu is more savory and less sweet than sukiyaki. It is considered a winter dish but is eaten year-round.
Sukiyaki (Japanese: 鋤焼 or more commonly すき焼き; スキヤキ) is a Japanese dish in the nabemono (Japanese steamboat) style.

lol... #1, don't use wikipedia for info. If you've gone to college, you would know that's not a resource for reliable info. #2, if you know asian history and know how each culture came around, you would know that China was dominant in the past and all asian language derives from the Chinese characters. Second, comes the Japanese language and third, Korea. Therefore, the hot pot originated in China (and picked up by the Koreans because guess what: Korea is a peninsula connected to China). When the Japanese INVADED Korea for the first time, they took with them some of the food knowledge that was used by the Koreans/Chinese. Because at that time, Koreans did NOT have a Korean language but used Chinese, we never had our "own name" for the hot pot. Instead, the Japanese named it Shabu Shabu and being under their rule, we Koreans were forced to speak their language. Therefore, we never made up a name for the hot pot and still call it Shabu Shabu to this day. Know your history my friend before coming at me with Wikipedia nonsense.. lol...

So if I add vietnamese Tuong Ot Sriracha to a bowl of ramen noodles, can I now call it ramen and say its vietnamese noodles? Apply this logic to your argument and you will see how ridiculous you sound.

His parents mated, and produced him. This automatically makes him an expert on Korean culture and culinary history. How dare you argue with a scholar of his level?
