Common Japanese style of Yakiniku, drawing influences from Korean dishes such as bulgogi and galbi, became widespread in Japan during the 20th century, most notably after the Second World War. Restaurants serving this dish either advertised themselves as offal-grill (ホルモン焼き, horumon-yaki^?) or simply Korean cuisine (朝鮮料理, chōsen ryori^?). The division of the Korean peninsula led to disagreements in the mid-1960's in the naming of "Korean food", with pro-South businesses changing their signs to "kankoku ryori (韓国料理, kankoku ryori^?)" (named after Republic of Korea) rather than sticking to the term chōsen (Joseon), the name of the old, undivided Korea. As a compromise, the term yakiniku was adapted as an approximate translation of the Korean term bulgogi.
