Perilla frutescens, commonly called perilla or Korean perilla, is a species of Perilla in the mint family Lamiaceae. It is an annual plant native to Southeast Asia and Indian highlands, and grown in Korean peninsula, Southern China and India. Known as deulkkae (들깨) in Korean, the plant was introduced into Korea before Unified Silla era, when it started to be widely cultivated.

In Korean, the name kkae (깨) refers to both the plant and the seed of sesame and perilla.Sesame is called chamkkae (참깨; literally "true kkae"), while perilla is called deulkkae (들깨; literally "wild kkae"). Since sesame is considered as the regular kkae in Korean-speaking communities, kkae has often been translated into sesame. This (mis-)translation custom thus gave the nickname "wild sessame" to deulkkae. The plant is called egoma (エゴマ/荏胡麻) in Japanese, and zĭsū (紫苏) in Chinese.

The leaves are called "perilla" or "perilla leaves" in English, and kkaennip (깻잎; literally "kkae leaf") in Korean. It is called egomanoha (エゴマの葉) in Japanese, and sūyè (苏叶) or sūziyè (苏子叶) in Chinese.

Perilla frutescens has two known varieties.
