The objective of this study was to investigate by a sensory evaluation and mechanical examination the sensory and quality characteristics of wageobyune containing different ratios of ingredients such as lettuce (50%, 60% and 70%), sugar and water. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that wageobyung containing 50% lettuce had higher scores in the overall acceptability, color, flavor and chewiness preference. In the textural analysis of wageobyung, the springiness, cohesiveness and hardness were the highest and the chewiness, gumminess and adhesiveness were the highest in the 70% added samples. Increasing the lettuce content decreased the hunter's color L-value of wageobyung. The redness and yellowness of wageobyung were increased as more lettuce was added. The moisture content of wageobyung was higher in the samples containing 70% lettuce than those containing 50%.
