Bomdong (Korean: 봄동), also known as spring cabbage, is a hardy cabbage with tough, sweet leaves.

[1][2] The leaves of bomdong, unlike those of regular napa cabbages, fall to the sides, giving the plant a flat shape.

This cabbage is primarily used in the making of kimchi and salads.

70% of the bomdong grown in Korea comes from South Jeolla province, near Haenam and Jindo.

[4] In Korea, bomdong is made into geotjeori (fresh kimchi).
