Yeah, I get it. There was a bit of a fruit flavored soju fad about ten years ago in Korea, but that has pretty much completely died off. You’d be hard pressed to find soju cocktails or makgeolli dolled up in Korea outside of a few regional places that want to be known for chestnut or corn or sweet potato makgeolli.

Commercially produced makgeolli will always use artificial sweeteners because there’s still active fermenting taking place and any real sweeteners will be turned into alcohol, which will effect the taste and alcohol content. With craft makgeolli, you add a sweetener, like juice or honey or sugar, shortly before serving.

Graduated twenty years ago and still have these dreams.

So, we’re done with beans andcorn and we’re going back to moths again?

Ohh, right. Thanks for reminding me that I can get this one now.

Doesn’t seem like the Chinese ones are as advanced as Atlas from Boston Dynamics. Check this fella out!

Slight correction: he was nominated for the prize before being sworn in. He didn’t receive the prize until nine months after being sworn in.

They’ve been “confiscated” at the beginning of every school day and put into this case with a bunch of pouches for phones since cell phones became a thing in South Korea, but apparently this was a decision left up to the school principal. The last middle school I worked at didn’t allow students to bring phones to school at all. I’ve never heard of any schools that allow phones in class outside of some supervised activities where they might need it. I guess this law just makes the rule mandatory for all schools.
