Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Kakdugi substituted red pepper powder with red paprika powder during fermentation at 1$0^{circ}C$ were compared with those of the control. The fermentation patterns of two Kimchies were similar. While the pH and the acidity of the control were 3.88 and 0.691%(as lactic acid), respectively, those of paprika, 3.85 and 0.690%(as lactic acid), respectively on the 10th day of fermentation, which is the optimal ripe time. Reducing sugar content and Lactobacilli number of paprika Kakdugi were higher than those of the control. The hardness and fracturability of Kakdugi radish were not significantly different from those of the control during fermentation. The Hunter color L, a and b values of both Kakdugies increased gradually until l0th day and then decreased. The a and ASTA value of paprika Kakdugi was higher than that of control, which is consistent with the results of sensory evaluation. Capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin analyzed by HPLC were not detected in paprika Kakdugi. Sensory evaluation (unstructured scale, 10 points) showed the score of hot taste f3r paprika Kakdugi was lower than that of the control(p<0.05), whereas the score of over-all acceptabillity for paprika Kakdugi(8.0) was higher than those of control(6.1).
