Pickled radish, called chikin-mu (치킨무, "chicken radish") in Korean,[1][2] is a radish dish served and eaten with Korean fried chicken.[3][4] Like other banchan, it is a free (and refillable, if not home-delivered) side dish in South Korea.
Pickled radish in vinegar or salt, pronounced Dan-mu-ji in South Korea, is a banchan commonly served as a side dish in South Korea for its coolness and crunch. It can be divided into two types depending on whether it is served with chicken or jajangmyeon. It is also an abbreviation used to slander the other party in South Korea.
