Explore 8,000 years of history and culture through a bowl of noodles in the KBS documentary Noodle Road. Aired in 2009, this delicious six-episode program looks at the role and development of noodles in world civilization and culinary culture. Where do noodles come from? Who lived on them? How did they travel from the East to the West? The makers of the program traveled to eight countries in Eurasia including China, Uzbekistan, Bhutan, Turkey, and Italy to trace the cultural roots and trade routes that eventually brought noodles to dinner tables around the world today.
