The first time I made gimbap quite a while ago, I used a bazooka tool and the rice to goodies ratio came out way off. Today I hand rolled on parchment paper (cause I don’t own a rolling mat) and I was able to control the ratio a bit better, but there seems to be still too much rice and the goodies are not centered? They tasted great though cause I chopped up meat from barbecued spareribs!

Looks great. If you want constructive criticism, I would probably spread the rice a little more to the bottom of the sheet; it seems you got a small pocket with no rice because at the top, there is almost no rice, just the carrot filling.
Koreans in general don’t use rolling mats; no one in my family uses them for kimbap.
I would definitely brush some sesame oil at the end, and sprinkle some sesame seeds or salt.
You’re doing very well. To add a little more, you spread the rice out as a base. It’s easier if you mix a little sesame oil into the rice.
Look yummy
Just the fact that you tried to make it yourself….props to you!!!! It looks amazing!!!
Less space, have some blank seaweed at the top and the bottom
Use a crazy sharp knife to get more round less square shape slices
Just spread rice more thin and a little more filling
Looks awesome for only your second time
Looks amazing. Do you to sell it?
second attempt at making gimbap and honestly, you’re leveling up already!!
