[Sweet fish (Euneo)]
Sweet fish or Euneo in Korean, is a small silver fish that is popular for its sweet taste. Many people compare the sweet taste to a watermelon and it is one of the most sought fish during the summer. Sweet fish return to the rivers from the sea around July and August to breed. During this time they are most fat in meat and delicious in taste.
