While South Jeolla's Haenam County is the primary source of winter-harvested cabbage, accounting for 70 percent, according to the Korean Culture and Information Service, Jeju is the origin of cold-temperature cultivation in Korea, beginning in the mid-1970s, with the development spreading to the Haenam region the following decade.
