Can the salted shrimp replaced by anchovi powder?

Hi Seonkyoung,

We love your videos! How long will the kkakdugi last in the refrigerator?

Thanks for all the great recipes.

I made this yesterday with daikon since my local market doesn’t have moo. 12 hours or so on the counter, then into the fridge to chill this morning. I’m having it for lunch now – delicious!! I’ll have to track down moo now and try that, too!
