This research was conducted to investigate the changes in quality characteristics of meju made with 24-hour germinated soybeans according to fermentation time. The study confirmed that the amino nitrogen content immediately after soaking was 15.5 mg%, and the content rapidly increased in the beginning of the germination process and continued to increase to 312.9 mg% by 48 hours of fermentation. The number of fungi in the whole soybean meju made with 24-hour germinated soybeans was higher than the numbers of bacteria and yeast since the Aspergillus oryzae was inoculated artificially.
