Gochujang (red pepper paste) is a representing Korean fermented food that, along with ganjang (soy sauce), that determines the taste of Korean cuisine. As for ganjang and doenjang (soybean paste), there are some foreign food that taste like them. That’s why gochujang is considered to the most suitable food ingredient representing the taste of Korea. Gochujang, which features its signature spicy but scrumptious taste, is exported to many overseas markets including the US and South-East Asian countries. As the interest in Asian food grows in line with the growing popularity of ethnic food in the US, the demand for Korean gochujang, which was concentrated in the market for Korean residents there, is expanding to the market for local consumers.

Korean Food Suitable for American Consumer Trends

K-Food Fair in New York 6-7 & Los Angeles 9 -10 July

6 Korea Agrafood


here is a growing interest for K-Food from the United States, the leading export market of Korea. The keywords such as wellbeing, health, fermented products are represented by food consumption trends in the U.S., which are related to K-Food. In fact, Korean cuisine is based on vegetables and low in calories, so it is the best food for this keyword. As most of it is fermented, aged, and pickled, you can certainly have balanced and nutritious food. The Korean food has fascinated the United States, that the U.S. consumer organization selected kimchi as a hot item last year. Kimchi is the most typical fermented and healthy food, which is known to contain a large amount of vitamins and minerals along with advanced immunity which has started to gain popularity among pregnant women and children. Kimchi Juice, in particular, when it was introduced in the U.S., it was popular enough to run out of stock regardless of its high price. Amid this well-being craze, products like

T

Aloe Vera drinks and Yuja tea also draw a notable attention. With its unique taste and rich nutrition, Yuja tea has been growing steadily more than ever with an increase of 71% from 2017 since last year. To further expand K-Food’s popularity, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs, and Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation (aT) will organize the KFood Fair in New York and Los Angeles in July, respectively. The fair in New York aims on promoting Korean food and events for consumers, whereas in Los Angeles will be more focused on business meetings connecting between Korean exporters and local buyers. It is definitely a great opportunity to meet Korean agricultural products reflecting the U.S. consumption trends at K-Food Fair. Here, a range of activities will be prepared for consumers, so it is expected to provide an unforgettable experience for those who visit the venue.

The American consumers are increasingly interested in ethnic foods. Among them, Korean agri-food is promoted as fresh and healthy, which meets the American food market trends such as fermentation, health, and convenience. The fermented food in trend has helped spread the recognition of kimchi and gochujang, and the trends of simple and healthy food have a positive effect on consumption of ramyeon, aloe vera drinks and seaweed snacks.

Many exporters tend to approach with the idea that popular products in Korea will easily succeed in the U.S. food market without thorough research and understanding. However, the product design, volume, and taste of Americans are quite different from that of Koreans. Therefore, we should actively reflect on opinions of local buyers. It is also important that food labeling meets FDA regulations.

Mini Interview with Buyers from Emerging Food Markets

“Spicy and Strong Korean Gochujang Will Be A Success”

Sanjay Nayyar from Best Products & Solutions in India

Not many Korean products are exported to India yet. But, India mainly imports some Korean food products including beverage and snacks, and is interested in gochujang (red pepper paste) among many Korean sauces. Indian consumers like a spicy taste, and

gochujang features its strong spicy taste. Thus, the Korean sauce is likely to be successful as a strong spice in India. Further, the population of India is about 1.3 billion, and the

“Korean Tteok is Highly Likely To Be Successful”

Cheng Chun Mei from Qingdao Han Tae Chung Trade Co., Ltd. in China

I am CEO of Qingdao Han Tae Chung Trade and imports mainly frozen food and mushrooms, and I was paying attention to processed rice food in BKF.

16 Korea Agrafood

Although Korean processed rice food currently sold in China is mostly snacks, Korean tteok (rice cake) has also potential to be sold there. This is because, in China, tteok is gaining popularity as a between-meal snack instead of bread. Some cafes in China serve tteok as dessert, and kids cafes and restaurants there also serve tteok. I had tteok with walnut in bean jam filling, and it was really tasty. As

Korean milk powder is popular in the country as premium milk powder despite its high price, Korean tteok can also appeal to Chinese consumers. Chinese people highly regard trust. So, it usually takes about three years for you to export Korean food products to China. It is thus advisable not to be hasty, but to prepare for the export slowly and carefully.

“It is Good to Prepare for Halal Certification” Mugunghwa is importing Korean food products into local markets in Indonesia. The Indonesian market is looking for some food products certified as halal food among processed food products such that Muslims can eat them without hesitation. However, many Korean food products contain pork or meat ingredients that are not allowed to be in halal products, and Indonesians do not lay their finger to such food products of which labels indicate pork. Indonesia is conservative and rigid when it comes to halal

certification, and does not easily accept halal food products certified by other countries including Korea. It was originally scheduled to commence mandatory halal certification for all food products imported into Indonesia from this October. However, the enforcement of the mandatory halal certification is deferred for five years. The enforcement of the mandatory halal certification may be brought forward depending on a political issue, and it is thus advisable for you to prepare yourself for the unexpected enforce-

ment in advance. In the meantime, Korean strawberries are gaining a huge popularity in the country such an extent that the fruit is sold out and not available there. Fresh produce is nothing to do with the halal certification, and the import is expected to rise continuously.

Internationally recognized safety The organization has recently received JGAP certification, which means a green light has turned on to export to Japan. As this is the first achievement among domestic watermelon products, it will actively target the Japanese market. In fact, it will supply 3000 JGAP-certified watermelons to 25 Costco in Japan every week from May to August. President Lee said, “Although the exports account for less than 10%, the unit price for Japanese market is 10% higher than in Korea. With the acquisition of JGAP certification, we expect to expand further export volume from here. The sugar content of Japanese Watermelon is between 10-11 Brix, whereas Korean Watermelon is above 12 Brix so I’m sure there is a higher chance of success. As Seedless Watermelon will be introduced to the export market from July, I’m very convinced that it will be a massive hit.”

Tasty Watermelon while good for health. Watermelon, one of the most enjoyed fruits by the Koreans, is known to be effective for thirst-quenching because its moisture content is over 90%. Furthermore, a substance called Citrulline converts protein to urea which prompts to discharge urine. Since watermelon is packed with water, it will moisturize the skin and another substance called Beta-carotene prevents skin cells from damaging. The calories is as low as 20-30kcal per 100g, and its high content of water makes you feel full easily and hence a great diet food. Watermelon is also a good source of Vitamin C and Potassium, so it helps to relieve fatigue. A substance called Lycopene is rich in red flesh acting as an antioxidant which enhances immunity and inhibits the growth of cancer cells. The Citrulline on the watermelon rind improves blood circulation and arterial function, as well as lowering blood pressure which leads to the prevention of cardiovascular diseases such as cerebral stroke and heart attack. Watermelon is high in Choline of Vitamin B complex which increases brain function. It also helps to sleep well at night, and boost concentration and memory skills during day time.

Such progress was only possible thanks to CEO Hwang Owibun’s efforts. Hwang said, “Crops like beans and rice are not viscous so there are no problems with crushing. However, as sweet potatoes are high in viscosity, it sticks to machine that we even had fire and we had to place a special order to solve this issue.

Jonaegi Sweet Potato going beyond the borders The products are currently exported to the United States, China, and Vietnam. The yearly sales is USD 340,000 on average, half of which is from export business. The first export accounted for only USD 40,000 in 2015, however, export volume continued to grow each year; not to mention this year’s as well. Moreover, the Japanese and Chinese buyers have inquired about importing at Busan Trading Show in this May, which is another good sign that export volume can soar. Vietnam, in particular, had a satisfying evaluation of the product so a positive result is predicted for this market as well. Hwang mentioned, “A convenience store in Japan also showed a great interest in importing ‘Sweet Potato Soup’, We have had good reviews for our products in Vietnam. As they don’t manufacture sweet potato products like us, there is an opportunity that export volume can expand further.”

It is a cold dish adding a refreshing and clean taste when it is eaten along with spicy dakgalbi. It is quite digestible because its main ingredient, buckwheat, is free of gluten which can cause indigestion. Makguksu is served with some garnish such as sliced cucumber and boiled egg atop. In addition to the garnish, chopped kimchi with less jeotgal (salted seafood) and red pepper powder is also added to the cold dish to make it more flavorful. You can also enjoy your own version of makguksu by adding various sauces or putting the noodles in kimchi liquid, according to your taste.

What made you establish the tea company?

I founded Nokchawon in 1992 in the hope of providing high-quality Korean tea to many more consumers at home and abroad such that they can enjoy it to their heart’s content. Korea is one of countries in the world that has a long history and tradition of tea. Korea is geographically advantageous to the cultivation of high-quality tea leaves, and has its own unique tea-processing method. When it comes to Korean tea, there are various terms and appellations. Korean green tea features its unique flavor and scent, and is known to be beneficial to the health of tea drinkers. It can also give you a sense of relaxation and pleasure in your daily lives. It is good for your health and tastes good, and that’s why I founded this company with the confidence and expectation that the interest of consumers in Korean green tea would increase and overseas tea lovers would enjoy Korean tea products.

provided in individual portions and is thus easy to enjoy and convenient to carry, a pouch-type product, and products that are provided in various contents and amounts, according to various consumption styles. What efforts have you made to provide Korean green tea of top-notch quality?

Nokchawon is producing green tea using only unique bluish-green and small tea leaves cultivated in Korea where all conditions and requirements for production of high-quality green tea are satisfied. We are sparing no effort to develop our products by employing different cultivation methods that can bring changes in tea variety, natural color, and contents of healthy elements in tea according to the tastes of consumers and the purposes of use of tea, and by applying detailed steps of processing, blending, roasting, and packing, and enhancing the food functionality of tea.

How did overseas consumers respond to the products of Nokchawon after they tried them?

Can you tell us about the export results you have

Overseas consumers are interested in green tea bag products. Nokchawon employs its own processing and packaging techniques to produce green tea bag products, and these products are highly evaluated for their subtle and rich taste. In addition to the tea bag products, our yuja-cha (citrus tea) products are also receiving a favorable response for their fragrant and sweet taste and popping pulps. There are some overseas consumers who give feedback on a bottled yuja-cha product, saying that they are not familiar with such type of packing and they prefer more convenient products to carry them. Based on the feedback, we provide overseas consumers with various types of products including a portion-type product that is

achieved so far, and your future plan to export tea products?

We exported our tea products to about 30 countries including the UK, the US, and China by 2018, providing the products to major markets, convenient stores, and retail stores for Koreans living there. We are trying our best to communicate with buyers and consumers by conducting market research on each country in the world and participating in various exhibitions. We can thus develop products based on the needs and interest of consumers and the opinions and suggestions of buyers, and supply our products to importers. We are planning to expand our export to South-East Asian and European countries.

Soju and Makgeolli are the most famous Korean alcoholic beverages abroad. Soju, is exported to more than 90 countries, which has been selected as a favorite Korean drink. Makgeolli is milky, lightly sparkling sweet rice wine with low content of alcohol, so it is in high demand in Japan, United States and China. In addition to Soju and Makgeolli, there are a variety of traditional liquors that are unique and full of characters from different regions. If you are interested in Korean traditional alcohols, it is recommended to visit this place.

About A Visit To Brewery The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation (aT) select and support ‘A Visit to Brewery’ in order to cultivate exceptional breweries across the country as tourist spot since 2013. This business aims to foster local breweries as a place that combines experience and sightseeing by supporting the improvement of the environment, quality management, development of activity programs, and promotion. Here, you can feel and taste the original flavor of traditional drinks along with fun programs. The breweries are recommended by the local government, and then selected according to strict criteria through a comprehensive evaluation of the agricultural and community linkage, history, and quality. As a total of 34 breweries are designated nationwide in 2018, the visitors can join ‘A Visit To Brewery’ in any regions.

A Visit To Brewery The Jeju Island Brewery is in Pyoseon-myeon, Seogwipo City of Jeju Island. With its motto of ‘Liquors made by men, in nature not in factory, with men’s hands not with machines’, it has been brewing alcohols for over 4th generations. Two types of liquors such as Gosorisul(40% ABV) and Omegi Malgeunsul(16% ABV) are chosen as intangible cultural properties of Jeju Island, which is still following the traditional brewing method. Omegi Malgeunsul is fermented in the traditional jars, and Gosorisul is directly brewed using the conventional pottery distillation method. Distilling the fermented Omegisul with this pottery will eventually produce Gosorisul. As using this distillation method is difficult and less commercial, it’s what many people avoid but Jeju Island Brewery sticks to this method. Besides, there are no additives other than millet, barley, water, and yeast grown in Jeju Island. The brewery has renovated a house to a fermentation experience site and a small cafe to welcome tourists. There is also a photo wall of Gosorisul in the courtyard, and a small garden planted with millets, which is the main ingredient of their alcohols.

A Visit To Brewery Balgeunsesang Farming Association is located in Poseung-eup, Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, where they brew Makgeolli called Horangi Baekkop and Sprits called Soho. Horangi Baekkop means Tiger’s Navel, inspired from the shape of the Korean peninsula. That Pyeongtaek is located at the navel level when the peninsular is seen as a tiger, whereas Soho means a smiling tiger. Balgeunsesang Farming Association is not a simple brewery but it aims to be a venue where the culture and arts of Korea are exhibited. In fact, Lee Gyesong, who created the brewery, is a painter who has worked on various pieces of artwork both at home and abroad so you can freely enjoy his paintings in the cafe inside. It takes up to 100 days for alcoholic beverages to mature and go through fermentation without any additives. The location is another bonus point that while brewery is located close to the metropolitan area, you can still feel the rural ambiance. Why don’t you follow along the path leading to the forest behind the brewing house, or stroll around the neighborhood to see a historic shrine of General Lee Dae-won, who contributed significantly at the time of the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592.
