Korean traditional cakes have long been shared among neighbors and friends
on many occasions of happiness and sorrow. The cake shape, content, and color vary
from one region to another. When neighbors gather to share traditional cakes
they extend their warmth and kindred spirit to others in the community.
Korea people have always made rice cakes when they had tragic or happy moments in their lives.
It was usually a considered good or delicious thing, and that is why rice cakes have been so closely
related to all walks of life. So it is hard to understand Korean people's lives
without understanding the symbolic meaning of rice cakes.
