Yeolmu () or young summer radish is a type of leafy radish cultivated in Korea. Its taproots and greens are harvested when they are still soft and tender.

== Overview == Yeolmu is derived from yeorin mu (), meaning young radish. It was originally cultivated as a summer intercrop, but in modern times it is cultivated intensively in the suburbs of cities, being available for harvest several times a year: about 60 days in winter, 40 days in spring, and 25 days in summer.
