Three of these meals would be full meals, while the afternoon and after dinner meals would be lighter. The first meal, mieumsang (미음상), was served at sunrise and was served only on days when the king and queen were not taking herbal medicines. The meal consisted of rice porridge ( juk, 죽) made with ingredients such as abalone ( jeonbokjuk), white rice ( huinjuk), mushrooms ( beoseotjuk), pine nuts ( jatjuk), and sesame ( kkaejuk). The side dishes could consist of kimchi, nabak kimchi, oysters, soy sauce, and other items. The porridge was thought to give vitality to the king and queen throughout the day.
