Yes! I grew up being told mu is "white radish," although I don't think it has any relation to "regular" radishes. But, I mean, I didn't know the word daikon growing up. The "white gimchi" might be baekgimchi, which is less or possibly not spicy, but is not the same as the non-spicy mulgimchi, which is actually served in the vinegary broth/pickling liquid/???. Sorry, vocabulary fail.
Mmm, gimbap. I miss it being a street food in Seoul. Seoul has great street food. The basements of department stores, too, which are more like malls except (usually) with super-better-awesome food options than the usual food courts in US malls. But I may be biased. :D
