Jeonnam Rural Development Administration (Director Kim Haeng-ran) has developed the first white-shelled tofu variety in the country, named "Midang," which is expected to accelerate the domestic production of tofu ingredients, reducing reliance on imports. Tofu, an annual crop belonging to the legume family, is primarily used as an ingredient in processed foods such as tteok and an-geum. Jeonnam is a leading region, accounting for approximately 70% of the country's tofu cultivation area, and Yeong-gwang is noted as the largest production site nationwide.

Consequently, over 90% of the tofu used in Yeong-gwang's specialty, Mosit-leaf songpyeon, relies on imports from countries such as Myanmar.
