[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Daesang Jongga Jip announced on the 20th that it will launch ‘Baekmukeunji,’ a white kimchi fermented deliciously with 36 years of kimchi expertise.

Jongga Jip Baekmukeunji is a specially made white kimchi fermented using a low-temperature aging method to achieve optimal taste when matured, allowing it to be enjoyed conveniently without the process of washing off red pepper powder.
