Koreans visit convenience stores on a daily basis.

And "Gimbap" is one of the best-selling pre-made foods sold in convenience stores in Korea. Korean gimbap comes in two different shapes: long rolls and triangular ones.

You probably have seen videos of people rolling gimbaps but have you ever wondered how they're mass produced before they hit the shelves?

Our team visited Firstfirst, a company that produces and supplies more than 125,000 ready-to-eat foods everyday to Korea's leading convenience store chain GS25, and took a tour around its factory in Incheon to see how these pre-made foods are manufactured!
