It is a rice cake made by kneading glutinous rice flour, filling it with ingredients like sesame seeds, beans, and chestnuts, shaping it into a half-moon, and steaming it on a bed of pine needles. Inside the chewy rice cake skin, there's rich or sweet filling, and the subtle aroma of pine needles permeates. It is a representative holiday food that families make together during Chuseok.
