[Nothyang] 1-Person Korean Essentials Yugi Set


Traditional Yugi, Premium Quality

[Nothyang] 1 Person Essentials Yugi Set 


We are very excited to introduce Nothyang to Gochujar!

Nothyang received distinction as one of "Korea Best Brands" for Traditional Yugi Brassware, consecutively in 2020 and 2021!

Their Yugi products have made appearances on popular Korean TV series and dramas like Itaewon Class, It's Okay To Not Be Okay, Private Lives, and 2 Days & 1 Night.

Each one Nothyang's Yugi piece is hand-made and meticulously polished into shape - using traditional Korean methods.

Nothyang's pieces have a modern yet traditional feel, making them a favorite brand among Korean food-stylists and restauranteurs.

If you're new to Yugi Brassware, we recommend starting with this Signature 1-Person Essential Yugi Set!

This set includes 6 pieces - the essentials you need for a Hansik meal:

Rice Bowl (1), Rice Bowl Lid (1), Soup Bowl (1), Chopsticks (1), Spoon (1), Chopstick Holder (1)

What distinguishes Korean Yugi (also known as Bangjja) from other types of brozenware is the alloy ratio between copper and tin.

Yugi requires an exact ratio of 78% copper and 22% tin.

From this precise ratio, Yugi achieves a golden sheen that radiates brighter over time (with repeated polishing).

Yugi also prevents viruses, bacteria and microorganisms from growing on its surface.

That's why Yugi ware was used to serve the Korean Royal Family and Court.

In modern times, Yugi ware has come back into vogue and often bought as a premium gift for newlyweds and housewarming events.

If you're new to Korean cooking or food styling, consider starting your collection with this beautiful 1-Person Essentials Set.

Beautiful dishware

I ordered the 6 piece Bangjja set after I had lived in Korea for a few months. I wanted to bring the beautiful traditional dishware back home but was unable to carry it back with me given how heavy it is.
I found this website and decided to order 4 sets. The dishes came well packaged and arrived quickly. They were so beautiful out of the box I almost didn’t want to use them!

I love using them almost daily. It’s a nice reminder of my time in Korea and it really elevates my meals :)

Iconically Korean

If you like watching Korean dramas you should be able to appreciate the feeling of owning a Yugi set. Playing it in your hands tells high level of quality; actually using it for your meals completes the satisfaction of reliving a Korean tradition. I am very happy with my Yugi sets from Gochujar which also comes with very responsive and caring customer service. Highly recommended to anyone who likes the same ideas.

PRODUCT NOTICE & FAQ 

Each Piece is Handmade

Nothyang makes each Yugi piece by hand

As such, there may be a subtle difference in size, appearance or minor scratches/blemishes/stains.

These minor imperfections do not qualify as a damaged item.

Soak in Vinegar Before First Use

Before first use, soak the Yugi pieces in warm water with vinegar (any kind)

Use a ratio of 2 Cups of Water for every 1 Tablespoon Vinegar

Soak for a minimum of 30 mins up to 1 hour (not any longer)

Then rinse with soap and dry-off completely with a kitchen towel

This pre-step soaking helps to remove a slight metallic smell in new Yugi (only need to do once)

Yes, any leftover metallic smell will be gone after repeated usage & washing

Q: I see stains on my Yugi - why is this & how do I remove this?

Stains form when the Yugi pieces are stored away while not being completely dry  (i.e water droplets).

Don't panic - it's completely normal and simply requires a round of polishing

Use the backside of a dry 3M Dishwasher Sponge (the coarse, dark green side)

Or use Nothyang's Yugi Wear Scrub

Place on a disposable glove and spread out a few newspapers (good tip)

Then remove the stain by scrubbing it - while it's dry

IMPORTANT: Both the Yugi piece & the Scrub should be DRY when scrubbing (no water!)

The stain will come off as a fine black powder

Shake-off the black powder onto the newspaper - then discard

We recommend polishing the entire Yugi piece (not just the stain) - as it helps to reveal it's natural golden sheen

Then rinse the Yugi piece with hot water & soap ... and dry-off completely with a kitchen towel

Don't use Stainless Steel Scrubbers/Wool

Instead, use a regular 3M Sponge when scrubbing-off stains - the dark-green, coarse side

(Or Nothyang's Special Yugi Scrubs)

How is Yugi Made?

Copper (78%) and Tin (22%) are melted together at a very high temperature to create a liquid alloy.

Following traditional thermal forging techniques, the alloy is rolled back & forth to reduce the porosity and increase the density of the material.

The alloy sheets are then pressed into different molds  to create the general shape of a bowl, plate, or tableware

Each mold is measured for evenness, balance, uniformity and any blemishes. The best ones are selected for hand-processing. 

Each piece is meticulously hand-polished  until it is perfectly smooth with a golden sheen

Finally, each Yugi piece is tested to see if it possess anti-septic properties. If it passes, it is then offered to the general public for sale.
