This study investigated the quality characteristics between spring cultivars of Kimchi cabbage(Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinesis). We measured the weight, length, width, formation index, midrib thickness and moisture contents of fresh Kimchi cabbage for characteristics of growth. And we analyzed the free sugar, amino acid, organic acid, mineral, pectin and cellulose contents of fresh Kimchi cabbage. The hardness and firmness were measured for texture of fresh Kimchi cabbage. The weight of 'K-power' cultivar was the highest than other cultivars. The ‘Jeongsang’ cultivars was the thinnest midrib thickness in cultivars, but it was not significantly different. The free sugar levels of spring cultivars was the highest in ‘Chunkwang’. Malic acid content of ‘Jeongsang’ was significantly different among spring cultivars. Also amino acid content of ‘K-power’ and ‘Chunkwang’ were significantly different among spring cultivars Mineral content in ‘K-power’ and ‘Bomaknorang’ were greater than that of other cultivars. Especially Na, Ca and Mg contents of ‘K-power’ and ‘Bomaknorang’ were higher four times than that of other cultivars. Pectin content of ‘Jeongsang’ was higher than that of other cultivars, but it was not significantly different. Hardness and Firmness were not significantly different among spring cultivars.
