A Kimbap Recipe Inspired by Extraordinary Atty Woo
If you’re a fan of Extraordinary Atty Woo, you know that the adorable lawyer loves three things – her job, whales, and kimbap. She only eats these Korean rolls and even follows a ritual before each meal. She’s biased towards her dad’s kimbap recipe, but she also indulges in her bestie’s unique version.
Unlike the usual gimbap that requires rolling, Dong Geu-Rami's recipe follows a beginner-friendly method. Instead of the typical sushi technique, you only need to spread ingredients on a nori sheet, fold into quarters, and slice in half. Think of it as a Korean quesadilla or sandwich! Serve as a light meal or snack and make the brilliant Woo Young-Woo extra proud.

Putting together a standard Korean sushi roll follows the same procedure as Japanese maki. Do away with this old-school method in favor of this simple folding technique to cut down prep time. This kimbap recipe is also customizable! You can serve variants like cheese kimbap, kimchi kimbap, and beef kimbap at a K-Drama viewing party. Why not transform the components of a bibimbap into this folded treat? It’s the perfect Korean picnic food idea to enjoy with fellow Atty Woo fans!
