Korean or not, it looks great... your photo has inspired to do something similar tonight (minus most of the heat -- while my kids have learned to appreciate garlic, they but aren't yet on friendly terms with capsaicin).

What makes it Korean exactly? It seems like a standard-issue garlic shrimp dish.

If you go to a Chinese restaurant in Korea this is a a common dish on the menu.

Without the heat I am sure that the kids will like it.
