 |

(CNN) -- Space, the final frontier, is about to add an Asian flavor.
"Kimchi, South Korea's popular pickle dish, has been approved for an historic space mission later this year, according to news reports. The food will blast off along with South Korea's first astronaut after being approved by Russian space authorities, the Yonhap news agency reported."
I mean, come on people......
Can Koreans really not live without this stuff that they need to take it up into space? 
By the way, the girl astronaut is going, not the guy. He f-up during a training
exercise and the Russians kicked him out.
GIRLS RULE

Ha Ha Ha . Good . That'll rock the boat a little .
More proof of the wondeful and generous gender equality aspirations of the western male . |

Well yes.
However, I would imagine going to space, you would want something familiar-now, going to Australia, China or the USA with boxes of ramyeon and kimchi-now that's macro-retardation worthy of contempt-but kimchi for the astronaut, not so much. |

He probably accidentally left the fan on in his room at night. - That's dangerous, you know. |
