The Korean custom of kimjang, making and sharing kimchi, is expected to be added to Unesco‘s Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list in December. The process has been granted “inscribe” status, which is expected to lead to full inclusion on the list. The final decision will be made at a committee meeting in Baku, Azerbaijan, which is scheduled for Dec. 2-7.
