Highlights
A savory "secret recipe" gochujang — a seasoned, stir-fried-style paste rich enough to eat straight from the jar, no cooking needed. Layered with minced garlic, shiitake, and shrimp powder for deep umami, it's built the honest way: meju powder instead of glutinous rice or flour, Korean low-sodium soy sauce, and three-year-aged anchovy sauce, all from 100% Korean ingredients. A certified low-sugar gochujang sweetened with allulose, it has just 1g of sugar per 100g, about a tenth of a typical gochujang.
Ingredients: Gochujang 67.2% (Korean red chili powder 27.3%, Korean soy sauce [meju (soybean, Korean), sun-dried sea salt (Korean), purified water], allulose, anchovy fish sauce [anchovy (Korean), sun-dried sea salt (Korean)], purified water, meju powder [soybean, Korean]), allulose, olive oil, minced garlic (Korean), shrimp powder (Korean), shiitake mushroom powder (Korean), roasted sesame (Korean), dried Korean-grown Carolina Reaper chili — 100% Korean
Purity check: No added sugar, no starch syrup, no flour; low-carb; gluten-free
Process: Naturally fermented, then seasoned (patented recipe)
Certifications: HACCP
Net weight: 250g (8.8 oz)
Storage method: Store at room temperature; refrigerate after opening and use promptly
Allergens: Contains soybean and shrimp. Made in a facility that also handles abalone, wheat, and beef. Not vegan.
Good to know: A living ferment — the lid may pop or the paste overflow a little; that's normal and safe.
다진 마늘·표고버섯가루·새우가루로 감칠맛을 더한 '비법 고추장'이에요. 별다른 조리 없이 그대로 떠먹어도 맛있는 볶음 고추장이죠. 찹쌀이나 밀가루 대신 메주가루로 빚고, 국산 저염 한식간장과 3년 숙성 멸치액젓을 더한 100% 국산 재료 고추장이에요. 설탕 대신 알룰로스로 단맛을 낸 저당 고추장 인증 제품으로, 당류는 100g당 1g, 일반 고추장의 약 1/10 수준이랍니다.
Description
A ready-to-eat, umami-rich gochujang
This is Thank-You's "secret recipe" — a seasoned gochujang made to be delicious on its own, with no cooking required. It keeps the low-sugar principle of the classic (no sugar, no starch syrup, no flour, sweetened with allulose), then layers in minced garlic, shiitake mushroom powder, shrimp powder, and roasted sesame, with a little olive oil, for a deep, savory, ready-to-eat flavor. Spoon it straight over hot rice and you have a meal.
The same honest base as the classic
Under the seasoning is the same foundation as Thank-You's classic gochujang: meju powder in place of glutinous rice or flour, Korean low-sodium soy sauce, and three-year-aged anchovy sauce, all from 100% Korean ingredients. It's a certified low-sugar gochujang, and even the Carolina Reaper is Korean-grown, so the heat comes through clean rather than harsh.
How to use it
Eat it just as it is — over rice, tucked into a lettuce wrap, or alongside grilled meat — or reach for it as an all-purpose seasoning in bibimbap, tteokbokki, stir-fries, and marinades. It does carry real heat, so start with a little and add to taste.
그대로 떠먹는 감칠맛 고추장
고맙당의 '비법 고추장'은 그대로 떠먹어도 맛있게 만든, 양념이 밴 볶음 고추장이에요. 설탕·물엿·밀가루 없이 알룰로스로 단맛을 낸 저당 원칙은 클래식과 똑같이 지키면서, 다진 마늘·표고버섯가루·새우가루·볶음참깨에 올리브유를 조금 더해 깊고 감칠맛 나는 '바로 먹는 맛'을 완성했죠. 뜨거운 밥에 쓱 올리면 그대로 한 끼가 됩니다.
클래식과 똑같은 정직한 바탕
양념 아래 바탕은 고맙당 클래식 고추장과 같아요. 찹쌀이나 밀가루 대신 메주가루를 쓰고, 국산 저염 한식간장과 3년 숙성 멸치액젓을 더한, 100% 국산 재료의 고추장이죠. 저당 고추장 인증을 받았고, 캐롤라이나 리퍼도 국산이라 매운맛이 거칠지 않고 깔끔합니다.
이렇게 쓰세요
그대로 즐겨도 좋아요. 밥에 얹고, 쌈에 넣고, 구운 고기와 곁들여요. 만능 양념으로도 좋아서 비빔밥·떡볶이·볶음·양념장에 두루 쓸 수 있고요. 매운맛이 제법 있으니 조금씩 넣어 입맛에 맞추세요.
About
Choicest Meal — operating in Korea as Specialtaste Co. — opened in Seoul's Sindang-dong in 1965, where a grandmother's gochujang and doenjang won a following that soon spread across the country. From the start she insisted on rice-based gochujang made only with carefully chosen ingredients, never flour. Three generations on, the family has widened that legacy into the low-sugar Thank-You (Gomapdang) line and a range of sauces that reimagine traditional jang for modern kitchens. Everything is made under HACCP and the international FSSC 22000 standard, and the company holds two patents in fermented-sauce production, is a designated venture company, and won a 2024 Brand Customer Loyalty Award in Korea's low-sugar-sauce category.
초이스트 밀(특별한맛 주식회사)은 1965년 서울 신당동에서 문을 열었습니다. 할머니의 손맛을 담은 고추장과 된장이 입소문을 타고 전국적인 사랑을 받았죠. 밀가루 대신 쌀로 빚은 고추장을 고집하며, 엄선한 재료로만 만들어 온 것이 그 뿌리예요. 3대가 된 지금은 당 함량을 크게 낮춘 '고맙당' 저당 장과, 전통 장을 현대적으로 재해석한 소스 라인까지 선보이며 영역을 넓히고 있습니다. 모든 제품은 HACCP과 국제 식품안전 인증 FSSC22000 아래 만들며, 발효 소스 특허 2건을 보유한 벤처기업이자 2024년 저당소스 부문 브랜드 고객충성도 대상 브랜드입니다.

01 · OUR CRAFT
Made By Hand, Not By Machine
Every jar and bottle comes from master artisans and small family producers across Korea, not a factory line. They still ferment in traditional earthenware, age for months or even years, and follow methods passed down through generations, the same way it's always been done.

02 · OUR PROOF
Recognized By Chefs, Not Just Labels
Our producers hold official heritage titles and food-safety certifications that aren't handed out easily. Many have been featured by international media and praised by Michelin-starred chefs around the world, proof that real craftsmanship gets noticed, not just claimed on a label.
About Us:
At Kim’C Market, our mission is to introduce a better, more authentic culinary experience—by offering premium Korean food products that are healthy, tasty, and thoughtfully sourced.
We started Kim’C Market because getting real Korean groceries in the U.S. was nearly impossible—unless you stuffed your suitcase on the way back from Korea. You deserve more than what’s on the shelves at generic supermarkets.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I receive my package?
We ship out orders only in the US, no later than
two business days after the balance on your order has been processed.
Delivery is made 1-3 days from date the label is created with selected
carrier service.
How do you source?
With our mission to improve people’s health by
providing premium Korean foods, Kim’C Market only offers the best
quality food from the finest producers in Korea. All of our offerings
have passed 12 internal criteria including taste, producer’s reputation,
sourcing of ingredients, and brand philosophy.
Sell by date
Every food product at Kim'C Market with less than 3 months to the sell by dates announce the date in the title page.
As a small company focusing on the best customer experience and
transparency, Kim'C Market is putting a weight on sharing information on food and correcting myths instead of asking producers to print later dates. (Fact: producers put a lot shorter dates than the lab tests suggest because they can't control the storage and distribution.) Sell by date doesn't mean the food is bad after the date or not edible. It especially doesn't reply to fermented foods - i.e. wouldn't you value aged kimchi or 5 years fermented doenjang? Please read our blog: Understanding Best-By Dates. We will continue to make efforts to educate our members and contribute to anti-global warming efforts.
I'd like to suggest some products. Whom should I contact?
