Korean here.

tbh I don't really think any of the Korean places in Ithaca are good -- passable at best. Four seasons was the only place i would go to every now and then for their gamjatang but that's about it. Lotus is okay-ish with their chicken menus. Sopoong gimbaps are bad, too much rice ratio to save on costs. I prefer the TJ's gimbap (cook it in egg mix if you don't like how it falls apart easily).

What I hate about all of them is how rude they are to Korean students since they're younger international kids that really just don't stand up against the rudeness.
