Restraunts are only as good as the cook. When a good cook leaves, they often take the good cooking with them.

There are lots of lists that are not updated.

Well, yes that is obviously true about a chef leaving but I just made my list today. So hopefully it's up to date? And I've been to all these restaurants more than one time for the most part.

As long as someone pays them to love everything, aka Suji's,( right seouleats and zenkimchis?), they write positive reviews.

Who gave you free meals to write positive reviews?

Sounds like someone hasn't left the Seoul area.

No kidding. Reading the OP's list, it's a joke. It sounds like someone hasn't even been outside of Hongdae/Sinchon.

Sojusucks...no one paid me. Believe it or not, I actually like these restaurants. And you think Isaac Toast would pay me to review them positively?

And Indagu/Sojusucks...if you read closely, you're notice Mount Fishtail is in the town where I live: Cheonan. And many of the restaurants are in Itaewon, not Hongdae/Shinchon, if you want to be precise.

I promise you this is not the best Indian food in Korea.

Oh, so you've eaten at Mount Fishtail? What didn't you like?

Have you ever eaten anywhere besides Fishtail?
I've been to India, and there's a couple restaurants here in Korea as good as anything I've had there.

This is more like a list of the only 10 places you've eaten in Korea. Taco Bell? Seriously?

Are you for real? Taco Amigo is on the same street as Taco HELL and you chose rehydrated slop?

Eeeesh....

Well, I've never been to India, but I must say that Mount Fishtail is one of the best Indian places I've been to in my life (and I've been to plenty of good ones in Vancouver and Toronto as well as other parts of the world).

Why don't you be kind and enlighten us to what is better? I'd love to try them and compare.

Sure. Try Durga or Everest in Seoul, or Maya in Daegu/Busan.
