Need the recipe!

As most of you know Kimchi is the national dish of Korea. Kimchi is a fermented side dish made from cabbage, radishes, onions, garlic, ginger.... a whole bunch of stuff! At every meal in Korea they serve helpings of kimchi...... well, maybe not at Jay's Pizza in Seoul. But trust me when I say it's everywhere.
The fascinating thing about kimchi is making it. From what I see on Kdramas an essential tool for the process is a kid's wading pool. Yep, none of these 1-2 quart bowls you have in your kitchen.... you'll need an entire wading pool. And then, if you're making the cabbage version, you'll need perhaps two dozen napa cabbages that are bigger than basketballs. From that point I know you need salt and water but the actual recipe is a mystery to me.
My questions for you kimchi afficianados is 'do you use these wading pools & enormous cabbages to make your special family recipe?' And they even have special Kimchi Refrigertors in their homes. Wow. ~ Judy
Judy, Judy, Judy…you do realize, don’t you, that the kimchi is stored in earthenware pots? Remember Crash Landing on You? I know in Arizona you couldn’t waste precious water on making kimchi. Come here and we will make some together!
Pat, Pat, Pat.... I think the earthenware pots are from earlier times. Now they seem to use Tupperware containers that are stored in the fridge! .....Song, you may have to chime in here with the 'correct' information! Do you make kimchi in wading pools? After you make it how is it stored?

See what you learn just by following the Gmamas? I’m still not sure I’m going to try this at home…. After all I don’t have that all important kimchi refrigerator. Thanks for clarifying Song!
