The "Korean Sushi" doesn't taste anything like Japanese Sushi, or to be more precise, what you saw is Korean Kimbap (literal translation: Seaweed Rice / Kim = Seaweed / Bap = Rice) and it's nothing like Japanese Maki. The rice rolled up in a kimbap is seasoned differently from the rice in a sushi roll. Also, kimbap tends to have sesame oil glazed over the seaweed, which can make it a little oily and shiny, and that of course, also affects how it tastes. The ingredients wrapped in a sushi roll is also different from what is wrapped inside a kimbap. They may look alike, but are actually very different.

It's like Pizza, Pasta, Curry rice, Sauce etc.. all evolved around the localization and became slightly to completely different. For examples, chilly sauce of China, Korea, Mexico, Spain, Thailand etc.. all different and Soy sauce is also all different too. One most popular & widely available soy sauce is heavily Japanized ones especially dark colored ones, but Koreanized soy sauce (we called it Choson soy sauce or Mongo Soy sauce - Korea has two main varieties of localized soy sauce - one with more clear soy sauce (not dark colored) is Choson soy sauce and Mongo soy sauce is said to be introduced by the Mongol to Korea - Some Korean thinks it's Chinese style. And Jin Soy sauce introduced to Korea which was originally Japanese company that made soy sauce in Korea during 1920s~1940s then when Japanese left Korea, the soy sauce factory got taken over by the locals then started making Jin soy sauce (which is just Japanized dark colored soy sauce). Many breads to sweet makers of Korea are started by Zainichi Koreans from Japan which brought Japanized sweets and biscuits & sweet breads.

9:21 It's not korean sushi, it's just kimbap(gimbap). Gimbap has a sesame oil flavor and Japanese norimaki(nori sushi) has a vinegar flavor, so they have a completely different taste. The ingredients in kimbap are also a bit different from norimaki. For Koreans, kimbap is a food reminiscent of their student days. You can never forget the kimbap your mother made for you early in the morning on the day of the picnic. 90% of the picnic lunches brought by elementary school students are kimbap.

Prices at the supermarket is quite expensive in Seoul. But you can go out and eat for really cheap. Not at the most touristy places like Myeoungdong. But in more local places you can have a full dinner for 5000-10000 won. So it can be really cheap to eat out there. Also if you go to the local markets you can buy fruite and vegetables, meat and fish and also banchan (sidedishes) for cheaper. Much cheaper. By the way. Hite, Cass, Terra is korean beer brands. You can buy them for cheap at your local supermarket. Sometimes 2 for 1.

The main difference between Korean Kimbap and Japanese Sushi in my opinion are the ingredients. Kimbap mostly has cooked and seasoned veggies, some kind of cooked meat and the rice is seasoned with salt and sesame oil along with toasted sesame seeds. Sushi rice is seasoned with sugar and rice vinegar and mostly has raw fish. In a nutshell, if you can't stomach raw fish and want a more savory veggies filled meal, then go for Korean Kimbap.

I'd like to come up with a little science about sushi. First of all, unlike the Japanese sushi you know, sushi is based on a preserved food from China called "鲊/鮨(Pronounced sushi in Japanese)" (that's just the origin of the food's development, which is very different nowadays). The key to this type of preserved food is to wrap meat (mainly fish in the beginning) in rice to ferment it and produce lactic acid, thus increasing its shelf life. In the case of Japanese sushi, this was mainly reflected in the fish ingredients and the sour, vinegared rice. The emergence of modern Japanese sushi coincided with the birth of the sushi roll, both of which were invented as forms of fast food during the Edo period. Sushi rolls were introduced to the Korean Peninsula one hundred year ago, where they were modified and became called "kimbap". When sushi rolls came to the US, Americans simply called them sushi too and invented the California roll, which is wrapped in avocado and topped with ketchup or mayonnaise.

Persimmon is native to China, Northeast India and northern Indochina. It was first cultivated in China more than 2,000 years ago, and introduced to Japan in the 7th century and to Korea in the 14th century. Food is probably cheaper in China. Food in Japan is probably more expensive than Korean food. I don't remember if you went to the Supermarket in China. The supermarket in Shenzhen are pretty nice. One of the biggest and nicest is Pangdonglai market in China. I think they are several stores. One of them is in Shanghai. It is the entire shopping mall. Japan created the modern sushi. But the origin of raw food was probably from SE Asia and China adopted by Japan. Korea was once colonized by Japan. So they adopt sushi too.
