koreanfestivals1-10, Exercise 3: Gimjang and the court table Model answer: Gimjang: the traditional winter preparation and preservation of kimchi; groups cut, wash and salt vegetables over about a month, and the kimchi is stored in earthenware jars buried to the neck (now also balconies and kimchi refrigerators). UNESCO: "Gimjang, making and sharing kimchi in the Republic of Korea", inscribed December 2013; it is the culture of making and sharing, not kimchi itself. The Gimjang article also calls it the 133rd Korean Intangible Cultural Property. Calendar slip: the article says the work starts "from the tenth month of the year" and then "in the cooler weather of November", without saying which calendar it means. Court cuisine: the article calls the modern form a revival in the 21st century, and says earlier banquet records mostly list foods without naming specific dishes, so a restaurant's "royal cuisine" is a reconstruction, not a straight continuation.
