Very much an acquired taste, but served on all possible occasions in Korea.
As with most Asian words, Western spellings vary.
Unless of course it's yet another species of bird I haven't seen?

Ah Hah,
This misguided missal is definitely a plot to discredit the Great
Fatherland of the GHL.How can I tell? Simple..... no Korean has never
had nor ever will have a surplus of Kimchee.... there can never never
be too much Kimchee!!! And the thought of trading our Kimchee or any
other Kim, for a lousy Missile Guidance system, Hah. We don't need
any, why should we, when we have the much superior GHL system, which
is proven to be able to reach Burren Junction, perhaps even Dubbo and
the next model will reach Werribee.
So there you lapping running dogs.

It was I the great Kim Jong IL who sent my agents on a mission to
divert the
West as I was about to test my missiles. I had heard from a Cockney
Maoist
that in the west you "like the birds, cor blimey, Gordon Bennett, not
'alf!
I'd go a fousand miles for a right good looker, me!" so I cunningly
had one
of our spy submarines take a ridiculously implausible bird species to
a far
flung part of the Western hegemony.
Four weeks later Kim Jung Flung-Dung III (my reliable 2nd cousin - I
had the
1st cousins all 'disappeared') called from the Walgett Post Office to
say
that they's come up the Murray-Darling all the way to "little ol' BJ",
before becoming stuck in a muddy carp-infested pool. He had left the
bird at
the side of the road so that it would be easily spotted.
So it was indeed man-assisted. Go cry over that in your bird books you
decadent revisionist lackeys!
Your peace-loving Sun of the Nation,
Kim
PS I have a rather large surplus of kim-chee currently and would swap on
e-Bay for a relaible missile guidance system.
