THREATS FROM NORTH KOREA: South Korea suffers Kimchi Deficit

South Korea imports more kimchi than they export as the nation's kimchi market brought in 275,000 metric tons of kimchi last year, while only sending 24,000 metric tons overseas, making it the biggest defict since kimchi data reporting began at the start of the 21st century.

The kimchi trade first went into deficit in 2006.
