Per serving, Kimchi Jjigae runs about 35% more expensive in United Kingdom than in South Korea. The single biggest driver of that gap is Kimchi (aged), which is priced noticeably higher in United Kingdom — it accounts for roughly 100% of the total difference. South Korea still holds a real edge, but home-cooking beats delivery in both countries either way.
