5 years for 3.3 billion won is quite alright lol
It reminds me of the nostalgic DaeXgang Pale Ale lol
The person who wrote the Economist article mentioned in the news is Daniel Tudor, the husband of MBC announcer Im Hyun-joo, who is quite "me-like"
Daniel Tudor lol
But actually, this person is also a bit...

It is a pale ale[2], a type of ale, created through a collaboration between the Mikkeller brewery in Denmark and Korea's The Booth[1].
The origin of its quite unique name stems from a remark by Daniel Tudor, who was a journalist for The Economist. It is a beer created by three people—an oriental medicine doctor and two investment advisors—who joined forces starting from the comment that Korean beer tastes worse than Taedonggang Beer from North Korea[3]. However, it has no actual connection to the real Taedonggang Beer and is often criticized for being purely for marketing purposes.
