Kimchi-making Days in Korea
Pyongyang, November 9 (KCNA) -- In Korea all households are busy with preparing kimchi (pickled vegetables) for winter.

In the days between late October and November, a lot of cabbages and radishes, major raw materials of kimchi, are carried to houses.

When making kimchi, Koreans help with each other among neighbors.

Kimchi-making, considered a preparation of half-yearly food, has long been one of the most important preparations for winter for the Korean households.
