A messy baby was left covered in noodles while eating lunch at home in South Korea.

The eight-month-old infant Nong Dae Hoon was given his own plate to enjoy in Anseong on December 5.

However, the little foodie apparently had too much fun eating with his hands as his meal scattered all over his face and body.

Footage shows Nong Dae engulfed in spaghetti while sitting on the floor.

Amused aunt Khun Jeab said: ‘I have been taking care of Nong Dae since he was a month old. He loves to eat.

‘His favourites included glutinous rice and puffed rice. He's an independent child and enjoys eating a meal alone.'
