To store Kimchi long enough in earthen Kimchi jars (KimJangDdock or JangDdockDae), we have to half bury it underground. The problem is, most people in Korea, especially younger people doesn't have places to bury it. That's why refrigerator specialized for Kimchi is so popular in Korea. Still many younger people tries to make Kimchi by their own. Some just for hobby. Some for their own taste. And there are niche market to provide half prepared ingredients to reduce most of burden. I don't think this tradition will die out. I will be changed.
