The purpose of this study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between the perception of Korean traditional food and the national identity of Uzbekistan-Koreans. National identity was characterized into 4 dimensions, i.e., psychological identity, national independence, compatriot affection, and continuance of national culture. Data were collected from 634 Koreans living in Uzbekistan and were analyzed by chi-square and ANOVA. The results showed that the perception of Korean traditional food is significantly correlated with the national identity of Uzbekistan-Koreans, and that the dimensions of national identity are likely to vary depending on generation, educational level, and hometown of Uzbekistan-Koreans. Similarities and differences in the perception of traditional food by national identity are discussed, and the implications for food and nutrition specialists, especially for those who have an interest in traditional food in connection with the folk culture in Asian areas, are provided.
