So, what about this sentence? Would the bolded part be a reduced relative clause or be classified under gerund? Or, would the correct answer to my question be that there is a gerund inside of a reduced relative clause?

"The women wearing chima jeogori are making kimchi."

"The women wearing chima jeogori are making kimchi."

It is a reduced relative clause and the word 'wearing' is the present participle of 'wear'.

Whether it's the present participle or a gerund depends on whether it acts like a verb or adjective (present participle) or acts as a noun (gerund.)
