• It is a type of tteok, small rice cakes,
traditionally eaten during the Korean
autumn harvest festival, Chuseok.
• Songpyeon is also given to other
family members and close
neighbors.
• Songpyeon is used to show gratitude
for the year's harvest by placing it on
a table with other foods, included
newly harvested fruit.

4. • These small half-moon
shaped rice cakes (tteok,
떡) are stuffed with sweet
fillings such as sweetened
sesame seeds and
traditionally steamed on a
bed of pine needles.
• The name songpyeon
stems from the use of
pine needles, because
“song” in “songpyeon”
means pine tree.
