Colorful kimchi



Kimchi wears its colorful look sometime after the middle of the Chosen Dynasty. It was clean-cut and simple until then. Quality radish and Chinese cabbage came to take the place of the base vegetables, and the use of hot chili made it possible to add materials like fish juice to kimchi. Adding seasoning such as chili, scallion, garlic and ginger to the simple pickle of kimchi along with various fish juice and seafoods resulted in the kimchi which is quite close to that of today. It also led to the many varieties.

Not much has changed since. We can say that the modern kimchi reached its completion at this time. The only change is adding more items such as fruits, meat and pine nuts to suit individual taste.
