Anju (Korean pronunciation: [andʑu]) is a general term for a Korean side dish consumed with alcohol (often with Korean soju). Some of these side dishes can also be ordered as an appetizer or a main dish. These side dishes are different from the banchan side dishes served with a regular Korean meal. Some examples of anju are: fried chicken, dried squid with gochujang, assorted fruits, dubu kimchi (tofu with kimchi), or peanuts.[1]

Anju are usually served at bars, restaurants, and karaoke establishments which serve alcohol. In many drinking establishments throughout Korea, the purchase of accompanying anju is required if ordering alcoholic drinks.
