I saw this on someone’s YouTube shorts and saw these tteok. I googled frozen tteok and I can’t seem to find the square block ones. Any idea what brand or where I can find these?

It’s a Japanese type of rice cake called kirimochi, I’ve never seen a Korean equivalent but it’s possible there is one.
It’s not frozen it’s dried and shelf-stable

I’ve seen these at Japanese stores. They are called kirimochi.

So I don’t know a lot about Korean rice cakes, but this type of rice cake (kirimochi) is very popular in Japan.

It’s not frozen, it’s dried. In Japanese it’s called kirimochi. I don’t think there’s a Korean word for it.
It’s sold and stored at room temperature and when you heat it up, it gets puffy. It’s wonderful cooked with sesame oil, and then wrapped in gim and dipped in soy sauce

My mom used to serve me baked brown rice kirimochi with peanut butter. Chewy and yummy. 😋

Korea does not really have an equivalent to kiri mochi but we have been known to reheat certain types of tteok on a pan when it’s gotten hard. Kiri mochi is mochi that’s shaped and dried to be shelf stable. Tteok that is used in tteok soup and tteok bokki comes closest as it is a rice made product that is used to cook with and we have been known to pan fry it to soften when it has hardened. We will also dip it in a sweet sauce or eat it w kimchi

Thanks everyone!!! 🙏🙏 I had to know what these were as soon as she started frying them on the pan (3rd pic).
However, the detailed method seems closer to that of Japanese rice cakes (tteok).
In Korea, “절편” often features flower patterns or long stripe patterns. (Of course, other patterns can also be included…).

It kinda looks like 가래떡 but in a different shape.

Funny this was an old hippie brand dessert when i was a kid in California, potentially definitely from the japanese in the bay area. Just sold as something you break apart and bake made from sweet rice

You can boil it in soup, too. It becomes super soft and melty. They sell it at Daiso.

Looks like garaetteok but cut into blocky pieces, kinda like the ones used for soup. You can usually find them in the frozen section at korean marts, sometimes labeled just as rice cake blocks.

Although it’s a little confusing based on the picture, it must be “[절편](https://www.google.com/search?q=절편)”.
“절편” is made with the same ingredients as “[가래떡](https://www.google.com/search?q=%EA%B0%80%EB%9E%98%EB%96%A1)” but is only extruded (or shaped) wide and long.
