Hoesik
( ko, 회식, Hanja: , ) is a popular type of gathering in the society of South Korea, and refers to a group of people getting together to eat and drink. In Korean society, Hoesik has been established as a subculture of an organization or enterprise. Origin The origin of the Hoesik was based on the word "Hoe-min" of the Joseon Dynasty. It is said that the word "Hoe-min" was used in order to make the kings and officials of Joseon become 'Let's be one'. It seems that the most likely theory has changed from the word "Hoe-min" to "Hoesik". In this way, Hoesik is not a place for the individual, as it can be interpreted as an interpretation that the king and his subjects should live together and eat together.

Gui (food)
In Korean cuisine gui or guee () is a grilled dish. Gui most commonly has meat or fish as the primary ingredient, but may in some cases also have grilled vegetables or other vegetarian ingredients.

The suffix ''gui'' is often omitted in the names of meat-based ''gui'' such as ''galbi'', whose name was originally ''galbi gui''.

Korean Peninsula
Korea ( ko, 한국, or , ) is a peninsular region in East Asia.

Korean Cuisine
Korean cuisine has evolved through centuries of social and political change. Originating from ancient agricultural and nomadic traditions in Korea and southern Manchuria, Korean cuisine reflects a complex interaction of the natural environment and different cultural trends. Korean cuisine is largely based on rice, vegetables, seafood and (at least in South Korea) meats. Dairy is largely absent from the traditional Korean diet. Traditional Korean meals are named for the number of side dishes (반찬; 飯饌; '' banchan'') that accompany steam-cooked short-grain rice. Kimchi is served at nearly every meal. Commonly used ingredients include sesame oil, ''doenjang'' (fermented bean paste), soy sauce, salt, garlic, ginger, '' gochugaru'' ( pepper flakes), ''gochujang'' (fermented red chili paste) and napa cabbage. Ingredients and dishes vary by province. Many regional dishes have become national, and dishes that were once regional have proliferated in different variat ...

Jeju Black Pig
The Jeju Black () is a Korean breed of domestic pig. It is named for, and originates from, the large island of Jeju-do, which lies to the south of the country in the Korea Strait. It is a small pig with a black skin and smooth coat of hair. It has erect, unfolded ears and a narrow snout. Under a co-operative agreement between North and South Korea, about US$160,000 worth of equipment was shipped in 2008 from Jeju Island to North Korea to build a Jeju Black pig farm in Pyongyang; breeding stock was to follow when the farm was ready. As food Pork from the Jeju Black is said to have a unique taste, and forms the basis of some local dishes. It is smoked over burning hay, which gives it an unusual flavour and a chewy consistency. Until the later twentieth century, these pigs were kept to dispose of human waste. They were housed in sites built below the outside latrines where their "food" was directly delivered. From the 1960s this practice gave way to more conventional feeding. Som ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
