Chwinamul (also spelled chuinamul or chinamul) is a Korean leaf vegetable. It consists of the leaves of various species of wild flowering plant, including Aster scaber.

The leaves have a distinctive scent and their consumption is believed to be healthful. They are often sauteed until they wilt and served as a banchan (side dish), or included in dishes such as bibimbap.
