1 | I've been to A-Ri-Rang several times now and I have to say that I am not a fan.

2 | There are many Korean restaurants on campus that are readily accessible for students at UIUC. The market itself is a war zone.

2 | Restaurant review\nMy first venture into Korean food in Champaign was good. We decided to stop for a quick lunch and ended up at the first restaurant that opened at 11 AM on a weekday.
