Korean tableware is often made of metal and is well-known for its durability and easy cleaning and sterilization. Among these, flat chopsticks and long-handled spoons are essential utensils on the Korean dining table. In Korean table etiquette, the bowl should not leave the table, and bringing the bowl close to the mouth when dining is generally frowned upon. Therefore, the long-handled spoon is invented. Flat chopsticks, on the other hand, do not roll easily when held, making it convenient for picking up Korean side dishes, or banchan.
