Milmyeon () is a noodle dish that originated in Busan, South Korea. Milmyeon is a variant of the northern Korean noodle dish naengmyeon. It consists of wheat noodles in a cold meat broth (mul milmyeon) or a spicy sauce (bibim milmyeon), and topped with vegetables and garnish.
Naengmyeon is a northern Korean dish that is based on noodles containing buckwheat flour. During the Korean War, many northerners fled to the South. Buckwheat was scarce in Busan, so northern refugees made somyeon noodles with wheat flour provided by American food rations. One restaurant, Naeho Naengmyeon, claims to have been the originator of the dish, although this claim has been disputed. The new version of the dish was called milmyeon, meaning "wheat noodle". Milmyeon has become a specialty of Busan.
