(Japchae is a representative Korean festive dish made by stir-frying various vegetables and meat, then mixing them with boiled glass noodles and a soy sauce-based seasoning. It is characterized by its colorful appearance, chewy texture, and sweet and savory taste. It's a prime example of a 'K-noodle dish' loved by all ages.)
