This was something my mother made for me when I was very young. We had just immigrated from Korea to the U.S.A. in 1975. We were very poor and my mother wanted to give me some kind of sweets as a reward for doing something good like chores or for being a good boy. She couldn't afford to buy me candy, so instead she made me Dalgona. She would even use an upside down cup and make a Circle for me to cut out. It wasn't easy for a 4 year old to do at the time. If I did manage to get it out, she would make another one as a reward. Dalgona will always have a special place in my heart.

What was he supposed to do instead of give a business card? If you’re scouting someone you should give them your business card do they can call you. Lots of people use business cards in South Korea so that’s probably why they used it in in the show.

this flat round candy made of table sugar (sucrose) is actually called "ppobgi". Dalgona is supposedly made of glucose cube, and NOT flattened. but there is much confusion among younger generation, who don't know the history of this candy back in 60's.
@irispark13812 жыл бұрын
In korea the terms are interchangeable because most people don't care. Especially at a street vendor. I would say ppobgi more closely related to the game of taking the shape out. While dalgona refers to the materials in which ppobgi is made of
