A recent tweet by Super Junior's Choi Siwon has Korean fans glad that he's supporting his culture.

Siwon responded to a fan on Twitter, "Not ki mu chi. Kimchi... In Korea, we don't call kimchi 'kimuchi', but kimchi. ^^ It's not kimuchi, but kimchi." A Japanese follower had previously tweeted Siwon with the post, "ki mu chi 555..." Apparently, kimchi has been popularized in Japan as "kimuchi."

Fans commented, "Of course, a young man with common sense," "It'd be nice if Hallyu stars did things like this more often," and "Siwon fighting."
