Yes it’s very traditional. Not as much as odeng but it’s on the mt Rushmore.

Traditional? Probably not.
IMO, the OG kimbap contains: ham, crab stick, egg, spinach, carrot, and pickled radish.
I’m sure this varies depending on how/when/where you grew up, but I didn’t see any tuna in my kimbap until I was an adult.
Pic looks delicious, btw.

It’s very common, but I think I would consider it a variant of traditional kimbap. If I ordered kimbap, I wouldn’t expect tuna. If I wanted tuna, I’d explicitly order tuna kimbap. Now I want kimbap.

Was not traditional for my generation. We used Korean sausage, and we certainly didn’t use mayo.
Korea was a poor country after the war, so our diet consisted of mainly rice, vegetables, and occasional proteins. Dairy is a relatively new ingredient. We definitely had no cheese in 떡볶이 and pizza wasn’t even a word back in the day. We’ve come a long way!

It’s been a popular option for over a couple of decades at least, maybe more.
