Gukbap (Korean: 국밥; lit. soup rice) is a Korean dish made by putting cooked rice into hot soup or boiling rice in soup.[1][2] 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 at the late Joseon Dynasty.[3][4]
