context_page_description: A food truck is a large vehicle equipped to cook and sell food. Many food trucks operate in South Korean cities. Some, including ice cream trucks, sell frozen or prepackaged food; others have on-board kitchens and prepare food from scratch. Sandwiches, hamburgers, french fries, and other regional fast food fare is common. In recent years, associated with the pop-up restaurant phenomenon, food trucks offering gourmet cuisine and a variety of specialties and ethnic menus, have become particularly popular. Food trucks, along with portable food booths and food carts, are on the front line of the street food industry that serves an estimated 2.5 billion people every day.
context_section_description: Bungeo-ppang is literally means fish cake. It is a fish-shaped pie with red bean paste or custard cream in it. Koreans usually enjoy this street food in winter but nowadays it is hard to find Bungeo-ppang on the street. The cost of the reconstruction has become so high that no margin is left.
