History, tradition and origin
Grilling marinated beef is recorded in Korea for many centuries, and it was long a dish for the wealthy and for holidays. As incomes rose from the 1970s, restaurants with a grill in each table made it the standard way to celebrate with family or colleagues. The meat is wrapped in lettuce with garlic and chili paste and eaten in one bite.
Food economy and industry
Domestic Korean beef is graded on marbling and sells for far more than imports, most of which come from the United States and Australia. Pork belly is the everyday choice and Korea imports large amounts of it. The many small side dishes served free with every meal are a significant cost for restaurants.
