Fugu
Fugu (河豚; 鰒; フグ, pronounced [ɸɯ̟ꜜɡɯ̟]) in Japanese, bogeo (복어; 鰒魚, pronounced [po̞ɡʌ̹]) or bok (복, pronounced [po̞k̚]) in Korean, and hétún (河豚; 河魨, pronounced [xɤ˧˥ tʰu̯ən˧˥]) in Standard Modern Chinese refers to pufferfish, normally of the genus Takifugu, Lagocephalus, or Sphoeroides, or a porcupinefish of the genus Diodon, or a dish prepared from these fish. Fugu possesses a potentially lethal poison known as tetrodotoxin, therefore necessitating meticulous preparation to prevent the fish from being contaminated.
