Why does that have to be Yakgwa?


Yakgwa was an expensive gift or bribe because it was difficult to make during the Joseon Dynasty
But after some time, precious items such as wild ginseng and deer antlers came out
Yakgwa became a common gift
The servants who arranged the gifts left them in the warehouse, thinking, “Oh, this is yakgwa.”
The word continued to pass, and the word yakgwa was used for common or easy things
