Today is already the last day of September.
As the weather gradually cools down, many people are already preparing for the kimchi-making season, known as kimjang.
In fact, the retail industry has already entered into a reservation competition for salted napa cabbage.
Major hypermarkets and supermarkets are bringing forward the sales period for kimjang products compared to previous years.
Some hypermarkets will start accepting advance orders for 20kg of salted napa cabbage from Haenam, Goesan, and Pyeongchang starting tomorrow (October 1).
The prepared volume has also been increased by more than 20% compared to last year.
They are also introducing convenient kimjang kits that bundle salted napa cabbage and kimchi seasoning together.
Some supermarkets will also take advance orders for salted napa cabbage starting tomorrow until October 7.
Starting in November, they plan to accept advance orders for 20kg of salted napa cabbage from Gangwon, Haenam, Goesan, and Andong, as well as kimjang kits, across nine separate rounds.
Hearing news about kimjang already makes time feel like it is flying by.
