The first historical record on naengguk appears in a poem written by Yi Kyu-bo (1168–1241), a high officer of the Goryeo period (918–1392). In the poem, naengguk is referred to as sungaeng (), which literally means sunchaeguk (), i.e., soup made with sunchae (Brasenia schreberi). Yi praised its clear and plain taste, saying it made usual dishes seem vulgar.
