  • Jinju Yugwa (Deep Fried Sweet Wheat Cake) is a traditional snack that has been handed down for a long time in the Jinju area. These sweets are used for various congratulations and condolences. It is also a must-have dish for wedding receptions, birthday parties, and 60th birthday parties. Yugwa in Jinju City is made with crippled wheat. Even after frying, the properties of the ingredients are maintained.

Breads of the Creative Cities, the first inter-cluster project of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network, launched in 2018 by the Creative Knowledge Foundation in partnership with Tucson UCC, celebrates the diversity of local staple foods through bread as a symbol of cultural identity. It showcases stories, traditions, and practices from Creative Cities worldwide, giving voice to bakers, millers, and farmers.
