[Today's New Products] "Helping Kids Experience Kimjang"... Pulmuone Foodmerce Launches "Traditional Kimchi-Making Kit"

Three varieties: Citron Dongchimi, Persimmon Kkakdugi, and Fresh and Crunchy Kimchi

Pulmuone Foodmerce said on November 10 that it had launched three traditional kimchi-making kits to help children experience kimjang, the tradition of making kimchi for winter.

This year's lineup consists of three products: the new Citron Dongchimi, Persimmon Kkakdugi, and Fresh and Crunchy Kimchi. The new "Citron Dongchimi-Making Kit" contains 3.6 kg of cut, salted radish, along with Korean-grown chives and other ingredients, prepared in sizes that are easy for children to eat. To make it appealing to children who find spicy flavors overwhelming, the dongchimi seasoning includes Goheung citron, bringing out its distinctive refreshing and sweet flavor.

The "Persimmon Kkakdugi-Making Kit" contains Korean-grown radish salted with Korean-grown salt and seasoning. The seasoning uses mild Korean-grown red pepper powder to reduce the spiciness and includes Korean-grown ripe persimmons. The "Fresh and Crunchy Kimchi-Making Kit" contains salted Korean-grown napa cabbage, prepared with Korean-grown mild red pepper powder and tomatoes.

Pulmuone is also holding its first short-form video contest this year. The contest is open to daycare centers and kindergartens nationwide, with entries accepted through December 4. Participating institutions must create a 40- to 60-second video using the "Traditional Kimchi-Making Kit" and submit it through the contest's official website. One first-place institution will receive a certificate issued in the name of the head of the World Institute of Kimchi and a new 148-liter Pulmuone kimchi refrigerator as a prize.
