Korean citrus fruits such as Cheonhyehyang, Redhyang, Hallabong, and Hwanggeumhyang are known for their high sugar content and rich aroma, collectively referred to as 'late ripening citrus.' These fruits have been specially bred or crossbred with other varieties. Each has distinct features: Hallabong, a popular choice, is large with a protruding stem resembling Mt. Halla, and is juicy with a sweet and tangy flavor. Cheonhyehyang, meaning 'heavenly aroma,' has a delicate taste, smooth skin, and high sugar level. Redhyang has a reddish hue and is smaller, juicy with a firm texture, suitable for those who prefer less sourness. Hwanggeumhyang, introduced in 2009, is round, smooth, with a unique aroma and high juice content. All these fruits are rich in vitamins and beneficial compounds, promoting health.
