Well, I said I love kimchi, and kimchi we've got:
Kimchi Love

In late fall, people all around Korea spend hours making kimchi for the family for the next 6 months.  It involves taking cabbages and covering them generously with spicy red pepper powder, a little anchovie for flavor, and pickling them.  It's sort of like canning vegetables because you can refrigerate it, and it lasts a long time. 

Cabbge Before:                                                                     
Anyang Agro Fishery Market, Anyang, Korea
Produce market near our school

Kimchi After:
Kimchi Love

It's a good thing kimchi lasts so long, because our school and student's parents were very generous with us!  We'll be eating all this kimchi for the rest of the 6 month we're here.  And it's true what they say, no two kimchis are the same.

Don't be shy, tell us "hi"

Looks like an excellent high-fiber contrast to the rice based diet. It should make you "good to go" !
