This study was conducted to understand the Ramyun's selection attributes of Korean adults and examine differences in demographic characteristics and meal intake behavior among three groups of samples divided based on the Ramyun's selection attributes. Self-administered questionnaires were completed by 702 adults, and data were subjected to frequency analysis, chi-square analysis, factor analysis, reliability tests, cluster analysis, and discriminant analysis using SPSS. The results of the study were as follows. The Ramyun's selection attributes for Korean adults investigated were food quality (four variables), price (three variables), and company reliability (four variables). Cluster analysis resulted in the subjects being divided into three groups according to their Ramyun's selection attributes, a high-selection group, mid-selection group, and low-selection group. Three groups of samples classified by Ramyun's selection attributes differed based on demographic characteristics (gender and education level) and meal intake behavior (meal numbers, reason for meal, meal time, and meal size).

As a preliminary study for risk assessment of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) from processed food, the levels of 3-MCPD in commercial sauces and instant fried noodle (ramyun) seasoning were analyzed with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. In August and September 2005, twenty-five samples of commercial sauces and twenty-five samples of instant fried noodle (ramyun) seasoning were collected from retail outlets and markets in Seoul, Korea. Six out of twenty-five sauces contained 3-MCPD and the highest concentration was 0.045 mg/kg. On the basis of per capita consumption of sauces and mean concentration of 3-MCPD, the estimated daily exposure to 3-MCPD from sauces was $0.094{\mu}g/person/day$. None of the twenty-five instant fried noodle (ramyun) seasoning samples was contained 3-MCPD. Therefore consumption of instant fried noodle (ramyun) seasoning was estimated not to contribute dietary exposure to 3-MCPD.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the foods which 424(male 171, female 253) university students surveyed consumed frequently and to evaluate and the factors affecting their food consumption patterns. The survey was conducted at the beginning of nutrition courses each semester, March and September, 1998, with the questionnaire composed of general information, food, drinking and smoking habits, nutrition knowledge/attitude and food frequency questionnaire. The rates of alcohol drinking in male and female students were 89.2% and 78.1% respectively, and the rates of smoking were 68.1% and 1.6% in males and female. The nutrition knowledge score was higher in females than in males, but the nutrition attitude score was not significantly different between the male and female groups. The foods frequently consumed among students were cooked rice(14.3/week), kimchi(11.1/week), coffee(5.7/week), vegetables in soup, jjigae and jorim(3.5/week), carbonated beverages(3.3/week), cooked mixed rice(3.2/week). Ramyun and chocolate·candies·biscuits were frequently consumed, too. There were several factors influencing food consumption patterns. These were gender, regularity of mealtimes, the status of alcohol drinking and smoking, residence type and the levels of nutrition knowledge and attitude. Males ate more frequently cooked rice, coffee, carbonated beverages, ramyun, functional beverages and ham·sausage, while females ate more frequently cooked mixed rice and fruits. Those who had the habits of irregular mealtimes seemed to eat more soft drinks, instant foods and snacks. These trends were also found in the alcohol drinking and smoking groups. High level groups for nutrition knowledge of attitude score chose raw yellow green and green vegetables, cooked mixed rice, soybeans and seaweeds more frequently than the other groups. On the other hand, low level groups for nutrition knowledge or attitude score were apt to eat carbonated beverages and ramyun more frequently. Therefore, more attention should be taken to males, having habits of irregular mealtimes, alcohol drinking and smoking, and low level groups for nutrition knowledge or attitude score so as to improve their health.

The antioxidative effects of Rhus javanica $Linn{\acute{e}}$ ethanol extract (RE) with or without some synergists were determined by measurement of POV and TBA of oil in ramyun and potato flake fried in palm oil or lard. RE with ascorbic acid and with tocopherol significantly increased the oxidative stability of ramyun. The results obtained from sensory evaluation were similar to those of POV and TBA values. RE with phosphoric acid and with ascorbic acid retarded the oxidation of potato flakes fried in palm oil or lard during storage.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the relation of the unhealthy eating habit of high school students in Seoul with their school types. Methods: In cross-sectional study, secondary data was used, representative sample of 7,284 subjects, high school students in Seoul. Consumption rates of Ramyun, Fast-food, and a breakfast-skipping rate were compared by the gender, grade, and school type. Descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$ analysis, correlation, and multiple logistic regression were used for data analysis. Results: The odds ratios (OR) of associated factors on the breakfast-skipping were 1.25 times higher in the 11th grade, 1.26 times in the 12th grade (reference: 10th grade), 1.21 times in school for both gender (reference: only male gender), 2.63 times in the general high school, 4.82 times in the vocational (reference: the autonomous private). The odds ratios (OR) of associated factors on frequent Ramyun intake were 2.10 times in male, 1.79 times in both gender (reference: only male gender), 2.01 times in the general high school, vocational 5.26 times (reference: the autonomous private). The odds ratios (OR) of associated factors on frequent Fast-food intake were 1.89 times in school for both gender (reference: only male gender), 3.93 times in the vocational high school (reference: the autonomous private). Conclusion: Students of the vocational high school than those of the autonomous private had more and more the breakfast-skipping rate, and had more consumption rates of Ramyun and Fast-food. Therefore, in order to improve these problems, intervention for students, diversified school health policy as well as health education to right food intake consumption are needed.

This study analyzed the nutritional composition (proximate composition, total dietary fiber, calories, minerals, fatty acids, and amino acids) of 10 noodle products (tteok ramyun, jjamppong ramyun, kimchi ramyun, instant udon, cup ramyun, jajangmyun, bibimmyun, cream spaghetti, ssalguksu, and milmyun), which account for 85% of the cumulative intake of one or more key nutrients, using data from the 7^th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The moisture contents of bibimmyun, jajangmyun, and cream spaghetti were lower than those of the other noodle products, whereas the crude fat, crude protein, carbohydrate, and calorie contents were the highest. Cream spaghetti had the highest mineral, fatty acid, and amino acid contents, followed by bibimmyun and jajangmyun. Ssalguksu had the lowest contents of most nutrients. These data could be used to populate a food composition database, which can provide consumers with the nutritional information about frequently consumed noodle products.

To research the changes of Ramyun in Korea, this paper was went over an historical study through the content analysis of ads. from 1963 to 2012. The study period was divided into 6 stages based on GNI(Gross National Income). The advertisements were classified into new advertisements and all ones, and the advertisements of new Ramyun were categorized with 4 ways. And the most emphasized messages of advertisements and advertising models of each periods were also examined. The total number of new advertisements was 185(3.7/y) and 650 total advertisements(13.7/year). The most emphasized messages were changed from 'taste' and 'high calorie' to 'noodles', 'function(specific nutrition)'. The advertising models were actors, comedians, popular singers, in turn. The 1960's was the period when the fewest new products were advertised to consumers most often. 1980-1996 was the period when the most new products were advertised the most. During the depresseions, all ads were more frequently and new ads were lower advertised. Above results, each period was named as follow, respectively ; the Expansion period(1963~1969), the Set-up period(1970~1979), the Competition period (1980~1987), the Bipolarization period(1988~1997), the Transition period(1998~2003), the Stabilization period(2004~2012).

This study considered the whole intake patterns and realities of consumption of instant noodles on sales targeting children and adolescents. Based on a total of 1021 subjects, data from self-administrated questionnaires were collected and analyzed using comparative statistical analysis, including frequency, chi-square, t-test, and one-way ANOVA. Results of the study were as follows. The preference levels for instant noodles by children and adolescents were 5.25, thereby showing a more than moderate preference. Middle school boy students' preference for instant noodles was the highest. The main reason for preferring instant noodles was taste and convenience. The main reason for disliking instant noodles was poor nutrition and likelihood of becoming fat. The intake of instant noodles was the highest between lunch and dinner with a frequency of once to twice per week. Content of soup powder given taking instant noodles was the largest in having putted all. The soup quantity of being left given taking instant noodles was possessed the majority in almost not eating soup. The main reason for not consuming soup was being full or concerns for health. A significant difference was observed in preference level for instant noodles and in intake patterns depending on the respondents' general characteristics. Limitations and future research directions are also discussed.
