Robots and Ramen: This Is the Inside of South Korea's Largest Noodle Factory

The plant makes 6 million packets a day with 600 staff as Nongshim builds a $130 million export-only factory to meet overseas demand.

Summary by Ground News
On the floor of Nongshim’s noodle factory in the city of Gumi, there’s an industrial symphony playing out: the grinding of wheat flour and rattle of rollers gives way to the rhythmic swish of blades on dough; ribbons of fresh noodles are steamed with a hiss, flash-fried with a crackle, then whisked away in the blink of an eye on an ever-humming conveyor belt, and packaged into crinkling plastic.
