  Hi! I’m so happy to find out this forum, a wonderful place to get to know your food. I’ve been searching about Korean vegetables but it did not work.
  I have a new house and the former owner is a graceful Korean lady who puts her heart into gardening. So, fortunately, I inherit her green garden … yayyyy!
  We have plenty of vegetables in the yard but I do not know their names. I really want to have these vegetables in my meals and continue her gardening ad much as I can. Can any one help me address these vegetables ? Thanh you!

  Sorry I can’t help with all of these but:
  Top pic: I don’t know
  second from the top: chicory (Cichorium intybus)
  Third pic: Maybe Chui-namul, I don’t know the English name or it maybe gomchwi , (Ligularia fischeri)
  Fifth one: mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris)
  Bottom: common pigweed,(amaranth) Do not let it go to seed, it can become a weed problem in the garden. It is a very nutritious plant for and the seeds are a good protein source , but is a noxious weed, for corn and soybean farmers.
  Crown Daisy (Glebionis coronaria) is one of my favorite salad greens, and it is easy to grow. I grew it on my north facing balcony in Sweden.
  Perilla is another good green, it is fairly easy to grow but needs full sun.
