Exotic products such as gum-flavored beer and kimchi-flavored drinks are appearing one after another. The reaction that it was strange and fun and the reaction that it was strange and did not want to eat it came out at the same time.



Reporter Han Ji-yeon found out why these products are coming out.



<Reporter> A



corner of the convenience store was filled with ramen of unheard of flavor.



These are products that have recently gained word of mouth among the MZ generation.



Soda-flavored steamed buns, gum-flavored beer, hot chicken sauce ice cream, and even kimchi-flavored beverages, even the buzzword 'worse taste' with a new word meaning bizarre and vicious.



We held a small tasting session to find out the reactions of each generation.



[I'll try ketchup fried noodles~]



People in their twenties burst into positivity at the new taste, and



[Twenties: It's amazing. I'm fine. Well, this is also delicious. It's delicious.]



Rather, I'm looking for a more stimulating taste.



[Twenties: I wish it was more spicy. Spicy, sweet, sour-sweet.]



On the other hand, the older generation is already impressed with the product name.



[50s: (Gum-flavored beer…) Does it taste like gum??]



[50s: (I made Jaws

bar

as a drink.. It’s not a delicious color.) Like water to be thrown away..]



Put your face on the first sip Sometimes it frowns and leaves most of it.



[50s: Ah.. strange.]



[Lee Jeom-hee (50s): It was too sweet like a joke, so it didn't suit me. (Do you want to try it again?) I don't want to.] The



MZ generation considers this unique taste a challenge for new senses and changes.



[Jang Sodam (20s): I had a new experience. I have a unique experience that others do not have. I feel a lot of fun just with that experience... .]



[Chul-hyun Yoo/Convenience Store Company Responsibility: Unless it is unusual, you will not receive any attention from the MZ generation. (We are continuously releasing related products to increase more than 5 times.)] The



food distribution industry's attempt to combine more 'bitter tastes' to target the MZ generation is expected to continue in the future.
