Ogok-bap[2] (오곡밥) or five-grain rice[2] is a bap made of glutinous rice mixed with proso millet, sorghum, black beans, and red beans.

[3] It is one of the most representative dishes of Daeboreum, the first full moon of the year in the Korean lunar calendar.

[4] In the past, the custom of eating ogokbap with boreum-namul (vegetables) and bureom (nuts) on this day helped people replenish nutrients that have been lost during the winter months, when food was scarce.

[5] Today, ogokbap is still enjoyed by Koreans for its nutritional and health benefits.

It is a common diet food, and an increasing number of people replace their daily white rice with ogokbap, due to a rise in lifestyle diseases like high blood pressure, diabetes, and angina.
