SEOUL, October 25 (AJP) - South Korea's leading food manufacturer CJ CheilJedang is recalling certain batches of Bibigo-branded kimchi dumplings because of possible plastic contamination.

The recall covers 400-gram packages of Bibigo Authentic Kimchi Dumplings with an expiration date of June 23, 2025, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety said on Thursday.

"We are voluntarily initiating this recall with consumer safety as our top priority and will strengthen our quality control measures to prevent future incidents," the company said in a statement.

Food safety officials urged consumers who bought the affected products to avoid eating them and return them to stores for refunds.
