Nabak gimchi looks similar to dongchimi in form but is commonly consumed during spring and summer, whereas dongchimi is most commonly eaten in winter. Chili pepper powder is added to make nabak kimchi, resulting in a rose pink color as opposed to the white-colored dongchimi.
The term nabak originated from nabaknabak (나박나박) which is a Korean adverb for "making flattened" or "slicing thinly".[3]
