Today I will talk about Kimbap. I ate Kimbap for lunch. 여러분 김밥 아시나요? Do you Know Kimbap? 이게 어떻게 보면 밥과 김으로 만든 샌드위치라고 생각하시면 편한데요, 밥과 김 안에 식사가 되는 각종 재료를 섞어서 넣은 거예요. Kimbap is like a sandwich roll made with rice and seaweed. 김밥은 한국인들이 즐겨 먹는 음식인데요 김밥을 먹는 사람들의 이유는 다양하지만 일단 다양한 재료를 한 번에 먹을 수 있다는 점이 편리하고 언제, 어디서 사먹어도 어느 정도 표준화되어 있어서 믿고 먹을 수 있다는 점이 좋은 것 같아요. 요즘 김밥이 미국에서 엄청 인기라는 말을 들었어요. 틱톡에서 Traders Joe에서 파는 냉동 김밥을 먹는 영상이 인기를 끌고 나서 김밥이 미국에서 유행이라고 합니다. 특히 햄 등이 빠진 ‘비건 김밥’이 유행이라고 하는데요. 비건 족에게 인기 있는 음식이라고 합니다. 미국에서는 간단한 음식으로는 Junk food가 많다보니 다양한 영양소를 한 번에 먹을 수 있는 김밥이 대안으로 떠오르고 있습니다. 김밥, 드셔보셨나요? 한번 마트에 있다면 먹어보세요. 정말 맛있어요. [Translation] Today, I'd like to talk about Kimbap. I had Kimbap for lunch today. Do you know about Kimbap? In a way, you can think of it as a sandwich roll made with rice and seaweed. It's filled with various ingredients that make it a meal. Kimbap is a popular dish among Koreans. There are various reasons why people enjoy Kimbap. Firstly, it's convenient to have various ingredients all in one bite. Additionally, it's standardized to a certain extent, making it trustworthy no matter where or when you buy it. I've heard that Kimbap is gaining tremendous popularity in the United States. Videos of people eating frozen Kimbap sold at Trader Joe's went viral on TikTok, leading to its surge in popularity. Particularly, the trend seems to be toward 'vegan Kimbap,' which excludes ham and similar ingredients, appealing to the vegan community. In the U.S., where there's a prevalence of junk food as convenient options, Kimbap is emerging as an alternative, offering a variety of nutrients in one go. Have you tried Kimbap? If you ever come across it at a market, do give it a try. It's really delicious.
