Etymology

The Russian word pigodi (пигоди, plural) derived from pigodya (пигодя, singular), is the Russian transcription of the Koryo-mar word begoja (베고자).^[5]

History

Pyanse is said to have first made in Kholmsk, Russia by Sakhalin Koreans in the early 1980s, as an adaptation of Korean wang-mandu ("king dumpling").^[1][2][6] It has been the most popular street food in Vladivostok since the early 1990s, and became popular in Moscow in the 2010s.^[1]
