“…Thus, during fermentation, R. oligosporus might bio‐convert bound‐phenolic compounds into unbound phenolics as aglycone forms (Huynh et al., 2014). Furthermore, during the process of brewing Makgeooli, different kinds of fungi ( Aspergillus , Rhizopus ), yeast, and various lactic acid bacteria (Nile, 2015) can produce tannase, phenolic acid decarboxylase, benzyl alcohol dehydrogenase, and β‐glucosidase that can degrade some phenolic compounds (Landete et al., 2010). Therefore, fermentation processes might release phenolic compounds from plant matrixes followed by metabolic pathways of flavonoids, including glycosylation, deglycosylation, ring cleavage, methylation, glucuronidation, and sulfate conjunction in ways to produce new bioactive compounds (Huynh et al., 2014).…”
