Kimchi made by luxury hotels, such as Josun Hotels and Walkerhill Hotels, is gaining popularity despite its exorbitant prices.
Josun Hotels & Resorts, which sells 22 kinds of kimchi, enjoyed a 59 percent jump in kimchi sales last year compared to a year earlier.
As of October, its kimchi sales this year increased by another 25 percent from last year.
Meanwhile, after launching its brand of kimchi in February 2018,
Walkerhill Hotels & Resorts is selling 198,000 sets of kimchi on home shopping channels by September.
The hotel also delivers two kilograms of kimchi twice a month to its service subscribers.
Walkerhill Hotels’ subscribers recently surpassed the 600 mark up by 50 percent from last year.
