  2. i thought it was a moo-gook(radish-soup) because of the colour. don't they make that stuff with beef in it sometimes?

  3. isn't that "omelet" a stuffed pancake. I forget the name for it but Koreans enjoy stuffed pancakes.

  4. The omelet looks like a tamagoyaki - rolled egg omelet. Commonly used in japanese bento lunches. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamagoyaki

    Making it is kind of an art form and I'd be pleased to find it in my child's lunch! http://lunchinabox.net/2007/07/10/making-tamagoyaki-or-dashimaki-tamago-omelettes/

  6. 계란말이 안에 김 아니면 시금치가 들어있는 것같습니다. It looks like there's "gim" and/or spinach inside the egg roll.
