A hot milky broth with white sliced rice cakes afloat in it is a pre-requisite dish for any New Year’s Day in Korea. The tradition for eating ddeokguk on New Year’s Day comes from the fact it was believed to grant the eater good luck for the coming year and to even add an additional year of life. Even if it is not the New Year’s Day, a hot bowl of ddeokguk broth is essential for keeping in good health during the long winter.
