I grew up in Korea liking a hotdog made of a sausage coated with flour dough and then fried. Yummm I have so many good memories with it. My parents were dirt poor, and getting a hotdog was super special. I had one recently, and it did not taste as good as it was when I was a little girl.
When I went to college in the states, I loved to stop by the hotdog stand right around the corner of our school and order a 100% beef (go figure!) hotdog w/ extra relish and sauerkraut. Yummm
So, I am torn between these two. Which one do you like better? |

American, definitely. The Korean ones are good, but I miss all the toppings.  And Polish sausage hot dogs. |

I like both. Everyday for lunch I'm eating Korean hotdogs from a super cool ajumma.
Saying that however, an american hotdag is better.
Both are just as bad for you though. |

| Does anyone else call the "Korean hot dog" a "corn dog" or "dip dog"? That's what they were called where I grew up in the southern part of the United States. |

Who is this?
PS - I don't like hotdogs but European sausages are great, like bratwurst. |

A good hot dog is grilled not boiled, and it is placed in a fresh bun with cheap yellow mustard.
Some folks like to toast their bun, and that is acceptable but not classic.
A classic Coney Island has onions and chilli and NO sauerkraut. That is the best dog in the world. I believe the bun is not toasted.
In the Bronx it's slightly different, we don't use chilli, just mustard and sometimes relish. We like to toast the bun.
The sausages in Korea do not deserve to be called hot dogs. I refuse to eat them.  No, I just never wanted one. I'm sure they're pretty good. But no bun!? |

"Yuki Nakama" according to the pic properties.
Now all that's left for you to do is punch that name into Google.
What Harin calls a Korean hot dog I grew up calling a Pogo, but I guess that's a brand-name, so it's really a... corn dog on a stick?
I prefer your typical American footlong in a bun, but I really liked the pogos in Korea that were studded with potato cubes- hotdog and fries on a stick- yum. |

Whoever she is, she can have my hot dog placed in her bun about 5 times/day. |

It is funny, I have always thought of the Korean dog, a corn dog too. Never ate one in the states, but have had a few over here. I like the america hot dogs more so, like having he onions and pepper, relish, mustard... |

| Being an Aussie, I do prefer the American style hotdog, cheese, onion and some horseradish. Korean hotdogs are the pits. They shouldn't eevn be called hotdogs. Sugar coated batter on a stick is a more realistic name. |

As a few people have pointed out, only Koreans call them hot dogs -- they're corn dogs or pogos depending on where you're from. And back home we eat them with mustard, not ketchup. |

Which wiener is better?  Really now.
I'll just say I find them both anemic and bland compared to European sausages on rye. |
