Korean style pizza vs. New York Style Pizza

While explaining to foreigners, Koreans declare Pajeon/파전 as similar to pizza ! But in fact this is totally different! Korean style pizza or 파전 is made up of onion, octopus, shrimp, and egg. They are mixed together and fried in oil. Usually restaurants serve it with Makgoli ( Korean rice wine).
On the other hand, New York still is filled up with topping. It's mega sized and not sweet ;) the best place to taste it if you visit Brick Oven Pizza in Gangnam!
