> "Blorp" is the notional noise of kimchi or sauerkraut fermenting as the carbon dioxide escapes the airlock. Vigorous fermentation can be described as "the kimchi is really blorping along today".

I find it difficult to believe that a noise assigned to the preparation of kimchi would be so flagrantly incompatible with the Korean language.

I'm a basically monolingual white guy from the Midwest USA, transplanted to Vermont. I discovered kimchi in a restaurant and learned to make it from the internet[0].

I'm sure people who come by their kimchi-making through their family or culture natively probably have words that work better for them that I would stumble over and mangle is truly epic fashion :-)
