The filling is the same for all three buns, and the price is low, about $1, but the portion is relatively small, so you might opt for more. Be careful when you try it because it is hot! The sweet red bean filling is not too sweet.

The grilled corn and chicken skewers at Nami Island are great street foods if you want something sweet and savory. The buttered corn is a little more popular. It tastes sweet, and the butter flavor complements the whole food experience. The chicken skewers are cooked on charcoal for a plump and chewier texture. The skewer is wrapped with aluminum foil and spread with sweet sauce. The sauce was not smothered enough for me, but it tasted good.
