''Bunsik'' () is a generic term used to refer to inexpensive Korean dishes available at ''bunsikjeom'' (분식점) or ''bunsikjip'' (분식집) snack restaurants.

Baeksuk
Baeksuk () is a Korean culinary term referring to dishes made by boiling or steaming meat or fish to be cooked thoroughly without seasonings. ''Baeksuk'' is made with chicken or pheasant with plenty of water for several hours.
