How we counted

Naver and Daum are Korea’s big web portals. Koreans use them the way much of the world uses Google, and many people post restaurant reviews on blogs there. Those posts are in Korean, so most visitors never see them. We searched there in Korean for “부산 아침식사” (what you might search in English as “busan breakfast”) and similar phrases, and had AI read 100 of the posts. We counted only posts where the writer actually ate at the place. One blogger counts once for a place, even with many posts. Sponsored reviews are left out of the order. There is no score.

The dish pictures are drawings made by Gilpost from the posts. They are not photos of the real food.
