Gukbap
''Gukbap'' () is a Korean cuisine, Korean dish made by putting cooked rice into hot soup or boiling rice in soup. It is commonly served in a ''ttukbaegi''. Whereas soup and rice is generally eaten separately in Korea, in ''gukbap'', rice is expected to be mixed into the soup. With ''jumaks'', ''gukbap'' became popular especially in the late Joseon period. Origin The first record of ''gukbap'' in literature is in the "Journal of Royal Secretariat" (Seungjeongwon ilgi, ''Seungjeongwon Ilgi''). The journal stated that female physicians recommended the dish to Sukjong of Joseon, King Sukjong due to its heartiness. During the Joseon period, gukbaps were served in ''jumaks'', taverns for merchants. As ''jumaks'' began to develop along roadside areas, gukbap was given the name ''janggukbap'': ''gukbap'' sold in ''jangsi'' (markets). Illustrations of gukbap being served in jumaks can be seen in Gim Hongdo, Gim Hong-Do's paintings from the Joseon Dynasty. In the art piece, a barmaid i ...

Ttukbaegi
A ''ttukbaegi'' () is a type of '' oji-gureut'', which is an ''onggi'' coated with brown-tone ash glaze. The small, black to brown earthenware vessel is a cookware/ serveware used for various '' jjigae'' (stew), '' gukbap'' (soup with rice), or other boiled dishes in Korean cuisine. As a ''ttukbaegi'' retains heat and does not cool off as soon as removed from the stove, stews and soups in ''ttukbaegi'' usually arrive at the table at a bubbling boil. History The ''ttukbaegi'' dates from the Goryeo Dynasty and has been widely used from the Joseon Dynasty up to the present day. In the Goryeo-period poem of Lee Dal-chung (), the phrase "White ''makgeolli'' is brought to the ''ttukbaegi''" indicates the existence and common use of ''ttukbaegi''. Considering that Lee Dal-chung was a figure of the Goryeo Dynasty, it can be confirmed that ''ttukbaegi'' was already made and used during the Goryeo Dynasty.

Compounding, composition or nominal composition is the process of word formation that creates compound lexemes. Compounding occurs when two or more words or signs are joined to make a longer word or sign. Consequently, a compound is a unit composed of more than one stem, forming words or signs. If the joining of the words or signs is orthographically represented with a hyphen, the result is a hyphenated compound (e.g., ''must-have'', ''hunter-gatherer)''. If they are joined without an intervening space, it is a closed compound (e.g., ''footpath'', ''blackbird''). If they are joined with a space (e.g. ''school bus, high school, lowest common denominator''), then the result – at least in English – may be an open compound. The meaning of the compound may be similar to or different from the meaning of its components in isolation. The component stem ...
