1. Banana Milk (바나나우유)

This one gotta be the first on the list. Not only that it brings childhood memory but also it gives you joy when drinking this. The taste is simple, banana and sugary. If you call the banana milk in actual Korean work, it might sound funny. Now lets try Pa Na Na Ou Yu. You can find this anywhere especially GS25, C&U, 7Eleven.

2. Vita Yogu

This is one the yoghurt milk products made in Korea. Don't underestimate by its look. The first time you drink it, it taste like medical syrup. But from time to time, the taste will be good (sour and sweet), plus it gives you an energy boost up. If you are a student in South Korea and eat at the school cafeteria, you will definitely experience this! Or you can buy it from Lotte Super or Mart.

3. Citron Tea (유자차)

This tea flavor is awesome! The taste is a bit sour, sweet and delicious. You can drink this all day long especially in cold weather because it is going to warm up your body. clear your throat and not to make you dehydrate. 

4. Soju (소주)

One of the traditional alcoholic drinks in Korea. Soju is sold everywhere. It is weird for the first try but it is going to be tasty after you know how to drink it. Normally, if you drink it, your tongue will definitely in touch with the Soju, and that makes the taste bitter. But now try to one shot the Soju and place it behind your tongue near your throat, it will definitely make the taste sweet and tasty.

5. Makgeolli (먹걸리)

The oldest alcoholic drink in Korea. It is made from rice. The color is milky white and the taste is sweet and tang. Nowadays, it becomes a new trend by making this into cocktail kind of drink by mixing with fruit and other flavor.

Apple iPhone 6 and 6 Plus - Which Color?

It has been around a few weeks now that Apple launched their new product the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Some of you may be an Apple fanboy and some maybe not. However, when you take a look at the newly design iPhone, your heart might be attracted to the simple design yet powerful and premium. Like the last model, the iPhone 5S, the company still go with the basic color of the phone which are gold, silver and space gray. Therefore, which color of the iPhone should you get one?

Gold:

Honestly, it is unique and classy. However, it is gold, you will get bored of it over time. Unlike the iPhone 5, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus back are totally gold. I wouldn't go for that for long term use.

Silver:

The classic silver and white! These two colors have been on Apple Device for long. But the silver color on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus really look boring and silent. Yet, you can put any case on it and definitely look good with white. For long term use, you can consider this one.

Space Gray

The best one yet! The front glass of space gray model looks so gorgeous and simple. You cannot tell that is iPhone at a glance. But the experience of viewing is magnificent. Space gray will never go out of style.

Decide yours! I would go with white.
