Rubus coreanus, known as bokbunja[3] (Korean: 복분자), Korean blackberry,[3] or Korean bramble,[4] is a species of raspberry native to Korea, Japan, and China.[5] It produces edible berries (not 'true berries' in the botanical sense) that can be fermented into bokbunja ju (Korean: 복분자주), a Korean fruit wine (although the majority of fruit commercially grown for producing this drink are actually Rubus occidentalis, native to North America).[6][7][8][9] R. coreanus fruits are usually harvested between the May and July at peak harvest season. They can only be cultivated in a few areas in Korea[why?], different to Rubus occidentalis, which can be cultivated widely across the country.[10]
