Seon refers to Korean traditional dishes made by steaming vegetables such as zucchinis cucumbers eggplants or Napa cabbages that are stuffed with fillings. Although the term is a counterpart of jjim dishes made by steaming meat or seafood the concept is not clearly settled. To make a hobakseon (호박선) or oiseon (오이선) a zucchini or cucumber is cut to pieces of 4 or 5 cm in length and slit in a quarter. The pieces are briefly salted and the juice is squeezed a little.
