Drought-hit mountainside cabbage field

A water truck is deployed to water a mountainside field for growing Chinese cabbages in the city of Gangneung on South Korea's east coast on July 11, 2025, amid a prolonged drought hitting the elevated, cool area, located 1,100 meters above sea level, that is famous for high-quality Chinese cabbages, or "baechu" in Korean. Baechu is one of the main ingredients in making kimchi, a traditional Korean dish made from pickled baechu with spicy seasoning. (Yonhap)
