Kimbap is one of Korea's representative snacks, made by wrapping rice, vegetables, meat, and eggs tightly in seaweed (gim). It's simple yet nutritious and is often called the nation's 'Soul Food' loved by everyone. It is definitely one of the must-try foods for any traveler visiting Korea.

The main ingredient in Tuna Kimbap (참치김밥) is tuna mixed with mayonnaise. This kimbap is typically rolled with fragrant perilla leaves (깻잎), allowing the savory, rich mayo-tuna filling to blend perfectly with the various other ingredients. Due to its rich flavor and high satiety, Tuna Kimbap has long been established as a classic and beloved representative menu item of kimbap.

This Kimbap is made by adding cheddar or cream cheese inside the basic kimbap roll. Its key features are the smooth texture and savory-yet-nutty flavor characteristic of cheese. When mozzarella cheese is used, the heat from the warm rice melts the cheese, adding a delightful, stretchy texture that makes it even more appetizing.

Mayak Kimbap is a mini, bite-sized kimbap roll, nicknamed 'Mayak' (drug/narcotic) due to its addictive flavor. The key is dipping it into a special sauce made of soy sauce, mustard, and vinegar! Despite its simple ingredients, its strong, savory flavor makes it a representative Korean street food enjoyed by people of all ages. 🥢

This is a type of kimbap made with thinly shredded egg omelet (계란지단) instead of rice. It gained popularity as low-carbohydrate diets, which replace carbs with high-protein ingredients, became trendy. With every bite, the soft egg omelet melts in your mouth, spreading a rich, savory egg aroma.

K-Pop fans often skip meals due to long waiting lines and travel time when heading to concerts. In these situations, kimbap is the best choice! It's easy to hold and eat with one hand, and it perfectly fills you up, giving you the best energy charge before the show starts. Just as idols pour their passion out on stage, fans can prepare their stamina with a single roll of kimbap!
