A hand cutting the plastic film off a sealed Korean delivery container

common korean delivery wrap knife

Food ordered in Korea arrives sealed under a plastic film, and it always arrives at the moment you are hungriest. Do not fight it with your chopsticks and do not go looking for scissors you did not pack. Run the blade once along the rim of the container, peel the film back away from you, and eat. The rider is already three floors down.

How to use it in Korea

Hold the container down with your free hand and draw the blade along the inside of the rim. Peel the film away from you so the sauce stays where it belongs.
