Where's the Red Bull?

A quick lesson about quickie mart drinks in Korea: Koreans are not deceptive when naming. If it is called Pine Tree Drink, it tastes like a pine tree. If it is called Cinnimin Ginseng, it tastes like cinnimin ginseng, which, surprisingly, is as bad as it sounds (it tastes like dirty raisins). I miss the ambiguous American names like Red Bull and Rockstar. But I guess if those drinks were in Korea they would be called Synthetic Piss or Plastic Cotton Candy. Well, I'm off to try some Fish Onion Drink. Annyongi Kayseyo.
