Well, I try to stick to restaurants I'm comfortable with (ones known to be very veg-friendly) or else I'll ask a Korean speaker for help ordering. Even so, eating out is very risky and it's always best to prepare stuff at home. In addition to �ع�, ���� and ����, it might be a good idea to specify things like ��, ����, ���� and ��ġ ���� -- among others, depending on what you're ordering and how it's normally made. I wish I had a more complete list including all the various animal-based sauces and flakes that might be used. Also, "���� ��" means animal products and "��ä ��" means "vegetables only," but depending on the dish there's no guarantee everyone will understand.
It was more of a curiosity question for me ... People have told me it's �ع� but �ػ깰/�ػ깰 ��ǰ are in the dictionary, and it's very confusing.
(Sorry, I also don't know where all the spaces go ...  )

| being a veggie here is hard I've got a friend who never ate meat or fish before she came to Korea, and I mean never. Now she's thrown the towel in and has decided to have a year of eating any and everything |

�ػ깰 ��ǰ means seafood and fish food products. It means basically all types of food from the sea.
Since I came to Korea, I started to tolerate eating more and more fish, but only slowly. I even started eating raw fish, not bad. |
