is a vegetable store in a market in Seoul.

The price of cabbage has more than doubled compared to last summer, and the price of zucchini has jumped significantly.

It's a lot of leek on the table.

The price of a single unit was 1,000~1,500 won at this time last year, but this summer, it is sold for 5~6,000 won, which has increased by 5 times.

Housewives who came out to grocery store say that it is burdensome to set up a table at the rising price.

[Lim Soo-yeon/Seoul Mok-dong: I came out to buy some vegetables and fruits for a side dish for dinner, but I think it has risen too much compared to the previous year. It's raining a lot and things aren't good... .]

Due to the long rainy season and the heatwave, the production area was bad, so the prices of cabbage and radish surged 260% more than a year ago, and the prices of zucchini, lettuce, red pepper, and heat radish all doubled.

Consumers are also burdensome, but sellers are also difficult.

[Vegetable store merchant: I can't hold a lot of margin. It's too expensive when the customers think. It's all expensive. If you say it's expensive, you don't buy anything... .]

Due to hot and humid weather, it is not easy to store for a long time, such as poor growth and soft vegetables.

As it became difficult to secure a large amount of ingredients, the number one kimchi company in the kimchi industry temporarily stopped selling yeolmu kimchi in online shopping malls.

Typhoon Mysak No. 9 is predicted to have an additional impact on the Korean Peninsula.
