  • The Evolution of Bulgogi Over the Past 100 Years*
    Korea Journal, vol. 53, no. 4 (winter 2013): 168-194. 168 © Korean NationalKOREA Commission JOURNAL for / UNESCO, WINTER 2013 The Evolution of Bulgogi over the Past 100 Years* LEE Kyou Jin and CHO Mi Sook Abstract The purpose of this research is to examine the history of bulgogi’s transition and development over the past century. While bulgogi carries on the legacy of Korean traditional roasted meat, it is simultaneously a very unique cuisine, of which the rec- ipe and meaning have changed over time according to shifting economic and social conditions. As a result, bulgogi is not merely a simple dish; rather, the term embodies numerous symbolic meanings of Korean food culture. The origin of this seasoned roast meat can be traced back to the Goguryeo dynasty (37 BC–AD 668). In differ- ent historical periods and social contexts, bulgogi has gone through unusual and dynamic transitions of cooking methods, such as roasting and boiling. One of its first transitional periods (1920s–1960s) is marked by the use of grilled beef that origi- nates from neobiani and the commercialized cooking process of roasting. During the developmental phase of bulgogi (1960s–1990s), bulgogi boiled in meat broth appeared, quickly gaining popularity. The phase of decline in bulgogi consumption and popularity was followed by the revival of bulgogi (after the 1990s), when it was adapted through various cooking methods. Keywords: grilled bulgogi, beef broth bulgogi, neobiani, roast meat, Korean food culture * This article is a revision of LEE Kyou Jin’s Ph.D. dissertation, “Geundae ihu 100 nyeongan hanguk yungnyu guui munhwa-ui byeonhwa” (Korean Food Culture of Eating Meat during the Past 100 Years) at Ewha Womans University in 2010.
