Korean Pear Export Status Pear, a typical Korean autumn fruit, is generally harvested from September. The peak of the harvesting season falls around Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving), so pear is often associated with the holiday. The merits of the Korean pear include its refreshing sweetness and crispness. The sugar content averages 12 to 14 Brix. Thanks to its sweetness, Korean pear is widely processed into extract, juice, and jam.

The main production regions are Naju (South Jeolla Province), Cheonan (South Chungcheong Province), and Anseong (Gyeonggi Province). The sweetness and high quality of the Korean pear have opened the doors of 30 markets around the world, including the US and Taiwan. Among the different kinds of pears cultivated in Korea, Singo pear is the one most popular overseas.

Sweet & sour strawberry In Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam and Thailand, Korean fruits have met such a positive reaction from local consumers that they have established themselves as popular gifts.

Particularly, the South Korean strawberry is spotlighted among youths as a gift for their lovers for Valentine’s Day. It it because the South Korean strawberry boasts as its strengths high sugar content, sweet flavor, and pretty shape. Last year, the South Korean exporters and the local distributors offered prettily packaged strawberries for Valentine’s Day, thus drawing positive reaction from the local consumers.

Sweet & Soft Wine A variety of wines made in South Korea from grape, apple, five-flavor berry, honey etc. attract attention as well-being liquors at home and abroad. Apple wine has a sweet and fresh flavor. Five-flavor wine made from five-flavor berry, a sweet red fruit, characteristically registers an excellent harmony between the sweet fruit scent and the distinctively bitter taste. Honey wine, of which honey is the main ingredient, boasts as its strengths its being soft on throat and the distinctive sweetness of honey, since it goes through about ten days’ fermentation and a half-year’s ripening.

Processed Red Ginseng Products That Take Care of Your Lover’s Health: The processed red ginseng products are meeting sharply increased attention from international consumers. It is because the South Korean dramas and entertainment shows frequently provide exposure to the concentrated red ginseng liquid extract, which is convenient to carry around and easy to have. Therefore, one can often find foreigners visiting South Korea buy the portable concentrated red ginseng liquid extract sticks. Spotlighted for red

Tips Good-to-Know How to Use the Korean Farm Foods as Gifts The varicolored spray roses offer different uses depending on their color. First of all, the pink spray roses better be used when one confesses one’s love to someone. The yellow spray roses are recommended for those who want to convey apologies.

The processed red ginseng products better be varied with age groups.

Appropriate choices for elderly parents should be the easy-to-eat red ginseng slices and the concentrated red ginseng liquid extract served in pouches. The processed red ginseng product perfect for married couples is the red ginseng capsule, and for children, we recommend the concentrated red ginseng liquid extract to which sweetness is added from fruits.

As far as wine goes, apple wine is recommended to parents who meet a lot of people. The posh five-flavor wine and the honey wine full of sweetness are perfect as gifts for lovers.

The Korean Seol Culture

In Korea, Seol signifies the start of a new year. On the day, all in the family, who are scattered across the country, get together in one place. Usually, children who are gone to city head home to spend time with their parents.

And the family now home prepare food together. They make food for the ancestral service early on the day of Seol. The signature dish for Seol is tteokguk. Slices of long white rick cake are boiled in meat-brewed gravy. In Korea, people think they get

On the morning of Seol, all in the family, now dressed in seolbim, arrange the food prepared and give the ancestral service.

Seolbim refers to the dress for Seol. After the ancestral service is finished, family members visit their ancestors’ tombs to pay

Tteokguk

homage. Seol has a variety of plays to enjoy. Yut Nori, which is about moving tokens (called mal) on a board by casting four wooden yut-sticks, is a representative folk game which all in the family can enjoy. Other major folk plays enjoyed on Seol include Neolttwigi, which has two persons jump into the air from each end of the long plank seesawing over a bale of paddy straws or a straw bag, and jegichagi, a Korean traditional outdoor game in which players kick a jegi, made with a coin or iron stick wrapped with sturdy paper or cloth, into the air and attempt to keep it aloft. Those who want to feel the traditional culture around Seol in Korea may want to visit Folk Village in Yongin, either of the Hanok Villages in Seoul and Jeonju, or Hahoe Village in Andong.

Currently, the company exports to six Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Vietnam and Singapore, and the export volumes are constantly increasing due to positive responses from import buyers.

around 60-90g per fruit and has firm flesh. Along with these characteristics, based on diverse customized export supports after the designation as the ‘Miracle KFood Project’ by aT, Kingsberry is given wings to export as a promising exporting product.

In particular, Nosong Nonghyup Co-selection and Shipping Organization received supports from aT to strengthen market research and product competitiveness and demonstrative export product. Also, the company received intensive supports to overseas marketing including seeking buyers, market pioneering and solidifying exports.

Growth into top premium strawberry priced at KRW 10,000 per fruit President Park Hyung-gyu said “Although Kingsberry has infinite exporting potentials to increase income levels of farms, it could not be exported due to lack of experience and insufficient size of business” and explained about effective export supports saying “But since aT aggressively discovered unknown products in the early step of commercialization and provided export supports, we have now grown into a leading exporting product.”

Based on such supports, the company plans to continuously improve quality and strengthen overseas marketing with the aim to reach KRW 3,000 per fruit weighing over 60g and KRW 10,000 per fruit weighing over 90g. Also, since currently the production volume is way behind the demand from six Southeast Asian countries that import ‘Kingsberry’, the company plans to expand business from 60 farms to 120 farms to meet demand. In particular, considering the fact that there is no strawberry exporting complex in Nonsan, which is a major producer of strawberry, the company is progressing to be designated as a professional strawberry exporting complex in Nonsan.

Through such export supports, the company plans to aggressively advance into the US market mainly in Korean supermarkets and expand to export market in Canada following the expansion demand for export volumes by Canadian import buyers.

In particular, Doobo Agricultural is focusing on marketing by intensively promoting the excellence of GABA rice on TV and pioneering markets.

Import inquiries from overseas buyers continue Doobo Agricultural could gain confidence in exports because it could maximize the use of various supports such as the governmental facility restructuring and export supports for SMEs. Huh Tae-sung, the vice CEO said “The secrets of successful exports were revitalizing the exports based on export support policies of the central or local government, and concentrating on high quality premium functional rice market in the US market” and explained the knowhow in successful export to the US market saying “Exports are growing after the replacement of Japanese rice priced at up to USD 40 per 5kg by Korean GABA rice for the high-end consumers in US.” Also, the company focused on broadcasting the advantages of GABA rice on local TV in the US by using the marketing benefits from the local government, and the consumption basis expanded when more and more Americans began to see GABA rice as safe and healthy functional food. In a continuous

trend to this, the company expects to reach an exporting goal of 300 tons in 2019 from 180 tons in 2018.

In particular, the exports are growing due to the recognition as high quality functional premium rice mainly in the LA Korean Market in the US. Recently, the exports are continuously growing after the locals who shifted from functional Japanese rice to GABA rice.

In recognition of its premium product image and superior taste, import inquiries are continuing from overseas buyers in China, Japan, US and Europe.

consumers for such green agricultural products. Therefore, we processed the remaining rice and developed the products such as Makgeolli kit”.

The Makgeolli, a Makgeolli kit, was started from the idea, “Let’s enable anyone to make fresh Makgeolli easily”. The idea was enough fresh to win the first prize in the “Idea Contest for Promoting Rice Consumption” carried out by Gyeongsangbuk-do in 2010. Actually, you can make Makgeolli easily by using the kit. Put 5 liter of water and a set of The Makgeolli (puffed rice, malt, yeast) in a prepared container. After stirring rice powder, malt and yeast with a foam maker to move them along, covering the lid, and ferment it at the room temperature (25~28℃) for 3 to 4 days. If clear layer and opaque layer are divided after 3 to 4 days, then Makgeolli is completed. However, malt must be removed by a filter.

CEO Han Sang-cheol said, “You can enjoy various Makgeolli by adding honey, Omija (schizandra), green plum, raspberry, etc. The container of fresh Makgeolli was covered loosely, not tightly because its fermentation can be under way”.

taking into account people’s health. White rice is generally consumed, but it is lack of nutrients due to the removal of embryo bud and bran. Sangsaengchon developed the fermented brown rice product to enable people to get all nutrients of rice.

CEO Han Sang-cheol said, “White rice has only 5% of rice nutrition. However, brown rice has full nutrition, but is not well consumed due to rough texture. So, brown ice is good to eat if it is fermented for softening. Doctor Rice was born in that way”. He added, “Our product, fermented brown rice has a better texture and also removes heavy metals of the body. We were informed of good effect from diabetes”.

Sangsaengchon Gained Public Favor at Home and Abroad Sangsaengchon’s Makgeolli kit and Doctor Rice have already received positive response from at home and abroad. The exports of Makgeolli kit have been under way since 5 years ago and Doctor Rice entered the USA and Hong Kong. We obtained the FDA approval early this year. CEO Han Sang-cheol said, “The sales of direct and indirect exports last year were USD 42 thousand, and the Doctor Rice products are distributed focusing on Korean Town in the USA. Even though the prices of our products are expensive, we take regular orders from cancer and diabetes patients”.

The results of Makgeolli kit exports reflect the will of CEO Han to deliver Korean Makgeolli culture of consuming fresh Makgeolli to the overseas customers. CEO Han said, “A Makgeolli kit is made to drink easily like instant coffee mix. We export the products to the USA, Southeast Asian countries, etc. As organic rice is used as an ingredient, you taste it once and then can hate to drink general Makgeolli in the market. We will make more efforts to make our products medical food”.

Additional Info

How to Make Makgeolli with The Makgeolli Things to Prepare: 10L container, water 5L, 1 set of The Makgeolli, foam maker, strainer

Pour 5L of water into the container and add the whole set of The Makgeolli.

Put the lid gently on and let the mix ripen at room temperature (25-28℃) for 3 or 4 days. Do not close the lid tightly. As the gas produced during fermentation inflates, the content may overflow.

Use the foam maker to stir rice powder, yeast, and leaven together so that they may dissolve in water.

3 or 4 days later, when you see the separation into clear and opaque layers, you see that makgeolli is completed. Then, use the strainer to filter the yeast.

Keep the purified makgeolli refrigerated in a suitable container. A week or so of ripening in refrigeration delivers the finest taste. As fermentation may proceed further, do not close the lid tightly but leave it loosely closed.

有趣的紫菜包飯故事 History of Gimbap

Types of Gimbap

Unique Gimbap

In the Joseon literature, laver first appears as a local specialty product of Taeindo Isalnd in Gwangyang-gun, Jeollanam-do. From this, we can see that the culture of wrapping rice and side dish in laver began in the Joseon Dynasty. It is estimated that there have been many cuisines using laver in the Joseon Dynasty, and following the development of laver related food culture, Gimbap was born in the modern times.

Basically, Gimbap is made by rolling carrots, cucumber, eggs and spinaches into laver and rice. But its biggest advantage is that Gimbap can be made by personal preference.

Mexican who was Charmed by Korean Dishes,

Maria Monserrat Rangel Jaquez

F

rom few years, video clips that show foreigners eating Korean hot spicy chicken fried noodles

have been often posted in the world biggest video site YOUTUBE. Videos of this product receiving an attention for its strong hot taste have been posted after taking them for the challenging purpose.

Besides such hot chicken fried noodle considered as the representative of Korean Ramen, there are diverse dishes and food ingredients that have hot flavor. Among those, Kimchi, Bibimbap, Kimchi stew and stir-fried rice cake are good examples. They are dishes made with the basic food ingredients that flavor hot taste such as Korean hot pepper and hot bean paste.

Maria Monserrat Rangel Jaquez from Mexico who came to Korea in marriage about 2 years ago also has been fascinated with Korean foods. <Korea Agrafood met Maria Monserat Rangel Jaquez and listened to her story about Korean food and her determination about aT supportersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; activities.

40 Korea Agrafood

What made you like Korean food and when did you come to Korea?

Mexicans love hot foods. I came to know Korean friends in the language school in Mexico and to experience Korean foods, and became to love Korean foods.

I met and got married with Korean man in the language school in Mexico and came to Korea with my parents on December 2016. In Korea, I have been learning diverse Korean foods through my mother-inlaw.

Her most favorite Korean Foods

Tell me your favorite Korean food.

My most favorite Korean foods are Rabokki and port feet. Carnitas is the fried meat inside taco which taste is similar to Korean pork feet. I love Rabokki so much for its hot taste. I also enjoys Sundae (Korean sausage) because it is similar to the cooking process and taste of moronga in Mexico.

There is no Korean foods I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like. I have learned from mother-inlaw how to make side dishes such as napa Kimchi, Kkakduki, and Japchae, and seasoned bean sprout. I am also making baby food directly for her 12 months baby after she started making diverse Korean foods.

My baby likes not only laver but also less hot Kimchi. My baby eats so well when I mix Korean foods with Mexican foods.

You have become a member of the Taste-K unit. Tell me your resolution.

My parents also love Korean dishes and have a great interest in Korean agricultural foods. I happened to know Taste-K through the event posted on SNS and applied for the event because I loved Korean foods. I think there is an ample possibility of exportation of Korean rabokki and pork feet which are similar to Mexican foods. I will engage diligently in the promotion of Korean foods and the opinion presentation for the products of export companies.

What is the World Supporters, Taste-K? The Taste-K launched in 2017, is the world supporters, which consists of foreigners in Korea to support diverse changes in export market of agricultural foods. Last year, aT selected 200 foreign students from 20 countries including Brazil, Kazakhstan and Poland as supporters. They have been working for Taste-K supporters since July 2018.
