In this study, we analyzed three rice pre-treatment methods for the preparation of mit-sool (first mashing), with godubap (steamed rice), beombeok (undercooked porridge), and juk (porridge). The results can provide basic data for the development of takju with improved quality. In terms of the base alcohol, godubap produced the highest amount of alcohol (8.1%) after two days, followed by beombeok and juk. After two days of fermentation, soluble solids were measured at 15.3, 15.1, and 1.4°Brix in beombeok, juk, and godubap, respectively, The glucose content of godubap did not change significantly; however, the maltose content increased. In beombeok, maltose decreased from 16.48 mg/mL on the initial day 0 to 1.27 mg/mL on day 9. In juk, glucose and maltose increased from 14.05 and 11.49 mg/mL on day 0 to 31.39 and 42.53 mg/mL on day 2, respectively. Succinic acid levels increased in the godubap and beombeok mit-sool. However, succinic acid was not detected in godubap and juk during the initial stage of fermentation, and lactic acid was not detected in beombeok mit-sool. During the fermentation stage of deot-sool (second mashing), the highest alcohol content of takju made with godubap alcohol was 18.0% and the lowest alcohol content was 15.1% in beombeok on day 9. The total acidity was as high as 0.54% for beombeok, 0.41% for juk, and 0.39% for godubap. In the flavor analysis, ethyl caprate and ethyl caprylate, which were high on day 0 in godubap, decreased upon the completion of fermentation on day 9. Banana-flavored isoamyl alcohol content increased. For juk, ethyl caprate and ethyl caprylate, which were high on day 0, decreased on day 9. Flavor components, such as ethyl palmitate and ethyl linoleate were increased.

To produce sweet liquor without artificial sweeteners, 8 traditional rice pre-treatment methods (juk, beombeok, seolgitteok, gumeongtteok, mulsongpyeon, injeolmi, gaetteok, and godubap) were analyzed in this study. The formation of sugars with the help of ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\beta}$-amylase, and glucoamylase using nuruk as a substrate has been previously confirmed. During the early stages of the pre-treatment processes, the amount of maltose produced (in descending order of its concentration) by ${\alpha}$-amylase was observed to be as follows: gaetteok > seolgitteok > beombeok > mulsongpyeon > juk > injeolmi > gumeongtteok > godubap. However, changes in maltose concentrations with respect to the pre-treatment processes after 48 hours were observed to be as follows: injeolmi > beombeok = godubap > gumeongtteok > gaetteok = mulsongpyeon > seolgitteok > juk. Maltose produced using either ${\alpha}$-amylase or ${\beta}$-amylase showed similar results. Glucoamylase produced 10 mg/ml of glucose during the godubap process, which was the highest amount of glucose among all the methods. Moreover, when ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\beta}$-amylase, and glucoamylase were used concurrently, glucoamylase increased glucose production in the later stages. Therefore, the possibility of producing sweet liquor without employing artificial sweeteners was confirmed, even if the amount of sugar in the liquor varied with the pre-treatment process.

The purpose of this research was to appraise physicochemical properties by utilizing different Mit-sool, Juk, Seolgi-tteok, and Godubap, to produce traditional liquor. In all experimental plots, pH and amino acidity tended to increase with duration of fermentation. Titratable acidity displayed a very high number on the second day but then tended to decrease as fermentation progressed. Sugar contents were highest on the fourth day and tended to decrease with time. Alcohol content increased sharply at the initial stage of fermentation and increased gradually. On the 15th day, traditional liquor made with Godubap recorded the highest alcohol content. Common free sugar components were glucose and sorbitol. Common free organic acid components were lactic, succinic, citric, tartaric, malic, and acetic acids. Volatile flavor compounds were six alcohols, five esters, three aldehydes, and two ketones. Regarding overall acceptability in the sensory evaluation, traditional liquor using Seolgi-tteok as Mit-sool scored the highest. Overall, even though different types of Mit-sool had different physicochemical properties, there were no significant differences in volatile flavor compounds or sensory evaluation scores.

Recently, a large number of people are growing interested in Korean cuisine and progress Korean culture. This study inverstigated several kinds of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks and brewing methods, including ingredients in ancient culinary manuscripts "Soowoonjabbang", "Eumsikdimibang", "Onjubub", "Jusiksiui", "Uumjeabang" and "Eumsikbangmunnira" of Korean head family. Korean traditional alcoholic drinks were sorted into two groups based on characteristic (danyang ju, yiyang ju, samyang ju, sayang ju, yakyoung ju, gahyang ju, honyang juand soju) and five categories based on preconditioning methods of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks (iporrige, baeksul ki, gumung tteok, godubap, bumbuck). The most announced ancient Korean culinary manuscript is "Onjubub" (57 varieties of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks), the second largest book is "Eumsikdimibang" (49 varieties of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks), and the third highest book is "Soowoonjabbang" (40 varieties of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks). The "Uumjeabang" and "Eumsikbangmunnira" announced 21 and 15 varieties of Korean traditional alcoholic drinks in six books of ancient Korean culinary manuscripts, respectively.
