Love that too, but I have a need for Kimchi Jjigae and Dubu Kimchi as well so that would be in addition to, not replacing.

I get it. I'm a right fiend for kimchi stew too. Quite literally a food I could eat for the rest of my life and not get sick of it.

Honestly Koreans have historically pickled or preserved almost everything they could get their hands on so honestly the limits of side dish making comes from oneself and their willingness to delve into the unorthodox.

100% agreed, I'm not Korean myself but in the last decade or so my closest friends have been Korean, and they love more than anything to teach me more about Korean food and culture. The dizzying myriad banchans and kimchis amazed me at first, but seeing how it's more about the process than the dish made it click much better in my head, haha.

I could probably eat ssambap and gukbap daily for the rest of my life and die happy, lol
