In this study, the Korean traditional board game Yut, is considered. We clarify the definition of yut, object being cast, from investigating shapes of various types of yut. We survey some previous researches on probabilities for the board game Yut. To define goodness of yut, we define probabilistic order for Sawi and determine order of Sawi according to the probability of each yut. For the probability distribution of Sawi, Yut binomial distribution is defined and its mean and variance are calculated. We calculate the expected advancing distance of horse or mal for a player in each of her or his turn. Two indices are suggested for the goodness of yut and probabilities are found for good yut according to these indices and probabilistic order of Sawi. Here it is assumed that four yuts do not need to be all the same. Also some suggestions are given for the standardization of yut in terms of shape and probability.

This study was performed to develop yut(Korean Traditional Candy), products using dried-persimmon, with the ratio of 5, 10, 15, 20 and $25\%$, and the quality characteristics were investigated. The proximate compositions of dried-persimmon were $29.67\%$ moisture, $1.76\%$ crude protein, $0.18\%$ crude lipids, $1.31\%$ crude ash and $3.92\%$ crude fiber, respectively. Brix of yut products were ranged from $81.5\%$ to $83.0\%$. With increasing the amount of dried-persimmon, hunter's color values of Land b were reduced. In the texture property, the addition of dried-persimmon increased hardness, fracturability, gumminess and chewiness, while decreased adhesiveness. Judging from texture, taste and overall acceptability of the yut product, the recommended substitution level of dried-persimmons was $10\%$. In consumer sensory score, the $twenties\~sixties$ gave high score of color, while the $thirties\~fifties$ gave high score of sweetness. Overall acceptance of yut products of $dried-persimmon$ were good in old-age consumers.
