Banchan

Banchan (반찬) is a collective name for small side dishes served along with cooked rice in Korean cuisine. The basic table setting for a meal usually consists of bap (밥, cooked rice), guk or tang (soup), gochujang or ganjang, jjigae, and kimchi. Banchan are set in the middle of the table to be shared. At the center of the table is the secondary main course, such as galbi or bulgogi, and a shared pot of jjigae. Bowls of cooked rice and guk (soup) are set individually. The more formal the meals are, the more banchan will be displayed
