Per serving, Kimchi Jjigae runs about 5% more expensive in Canada than in South Korea. The single biggest driver of that gap is Kimchi (aged), which is priced noticeably higher in Canada — it accounts for roughly 100% of the total difference. The two markets land close enough that picking the right supermarket probably matters more than picking the country.
