One triangle gimbap and one banana milk. That is the whole thing, and it is what the people around you in the shop are actually buying. Prices checked August 2026.
ā¢ ģ¼ź°ź¹ė°„ Samgak gimbap ā ā©1,200ā1,900. The seaweed is kept apart from the rice inside the wrapper. Pull 1, then 2, then 3 ā the numbers are printed on it, and out of order it falls apart in your hand.
⢠ģ°ģøģ°ģ ķ¬ė¦¼ė¹µ Yonsei Cream Bread ā ā©2,600ā3,000, CU only, over 100 million sold. Roughly 80% cream by weight. Koreans put it in the freezer and eat it half-frozen.
⢠ė°ėėė§ģ°ģ Banana milk ā ā©1,800, often ā©1,200 on promotion. The bottle is shaped after a Korean moon jar and has not changed since 1974.
⢠ė°ģ¹“ģ¤ F Bacchus F ā ā©1,000ā1,500. There are two Bacchus. Above 1,000mg of taurine it is legally a quasi-drug, so Bacchus D is pharmacy-only. The smaller bottle is the stronger one.
