Kimchi is a live food which contains probiotic digestive bacteria (like yogurt does) and cabbage is one of the most important vegetable family plants for essential nutrients (anti cancer, etc.) So while it is not all that caloric it lets you make the maximum use of your other food (via the probiotic bacteria), protects your gut and nouirishes you. That hot food might taste good in a cold country.
