This study was carried out to investigate the characteristic quality of jeungpyun added Paecilomyces japonica with different fermentation time. The volume of jeungpyun added Paecilomyces japonica was more increased after fermentation. The volume was decreased when the fermentation was progressed. The pH was 5.1 before fermentation and the pH decreased when the fermentation was progressed. Moisture content was more increased as the time of fermentation became longer. Hunter color test, L value and b value appeared the highest after 1st fermentation, and it appeared lesser when the time of fermentation became longer. In measurement of texture, hardness showed the highest value when 90 minutes passed after the 2nd fermentation. Gumminess and brittleness were tend to increase when it have longer fermentation time. In scanning electron microscopic observation, organization of sponges was tend to break down as the fermentation time was longer. Sensory properties showed that color intensity was more strong when second fermentation was progressed, and hardness, toughness, sourness were high when the fermentation time was longer. In conclusion overall acceptability of jeungpyun, 3$0^{\circ}C$, 3 hours after 1st fermentation and 2nd fermentation for 30 minutes, 35$^{\circ}C$ showed the most preference.
