Gonggi is a popular Korean children's game that was traditionally played using 5–7 or more small grape-sized pebbles. Nowadays, children buy colourful plastic tokens instead of finding pebbles. It can be played alone or with friends. The pebbles or tokens are called gonggitdol (공깃돌), which means "gonggi stones." Since only a few stones and a flat surface are needed for play, the game can be played by all children, regardless of their economic condition.
