Tiger, since when have you been this cute!
The year 2022 has dawned. Im In-nyeon is said to be the year of the Black Tiger, and the editor recently visited Inwangsan to make New Year's resolutions. In the past, many tigers lived on Inwangsan (roar). How did you welcome the New Year? Still not feeling the New Year? Then how about meeting the new products born into the world to celebrate the New Year? Let's explore various new product launches related to the ‘tiger’. We won't miss any new arrivals.
Hollys with Koon the Shop
Hollys, a brand born in the year of the tiger in 1998, welcomes the Imjin year of the Black Tiger even more warmly by collaborating with the illustrator from Koon the Shop to develop the character ‘Heuko’. ‘Heuko’ is a cute baby black tiger with dark brown fur and black stripes, wearing a crown symbolizing Hollys. When you order any of the four new strawberry menu items or four Hollys best cakes, you can get a Heuko character deco pick. This is offered for a limited time until the 27th. When purchasing a menu with a tiger deco pick, a ‘Heuko’ paper postcard is given as a gift, and a digital planner featuring Heuko’s adorable appearance is also being distributed for free through Hollys official SNS, so be sure to check it out.
Dunkin' Donuts with Kellogg's
Dunkin' Donuts teamed up with the cereal brand ‘Kellogg's’ to launch cereal donuts and drinks. They had collaborated with Kellogg's last year as well, and to commemorate 2022, they introduced three new menu items: Kellogg's Choco Bavarian, Kellogg's Milk Donut, and Kellogg's Coolatta. Eat a donut and get filled with tiger energy! The Kellogg's Milk Donut, topped with crispy Corn Frost, offers a richer texture and costs 2,100 KRW, while the Kellogg's Choco Bavarian is priced at 1,900 KRW.
Sevenbrau with Mujik Tiger
Sevenbrau, known for releasing many popular craft beers including Gom Pyo, launched the Ddung-rang beer to welcome 2022. Ddung-rang, the signature character of ‘Mujik Tiger’, has transformed into an office worker. The image of Ddung-rang spending time for himself after a busy day is endearing. After a tiring day, when you want to turn OFF the ‘you’ outside, how about spending time with Ddung-rang beer?
Pascucci with Mujik Tiger
Pascucci also collaborated with Mujik Tiger to release three new products under the title ‘Receive tiger energy every moment and cheer up!’ There are two types of Tiger Earl Grey/Milk shakes featuring tiger stripes on the cup exterior and one Tiger roll cake. The two shakes are based on gelato ice cream, offering a chewy yet smooth drink. The two shakes (R) are priced at 6,700 KRW, and the roll cake costs 4,100 KRW.
KFC
KFC does not have a menu featuring a tiger character as the main theme, but it introduced Sorangi Chicken, which evokes the energy of the tiger. To celebrate the year of the Black Tiger, they combined a soy sauce with a deep, rich flavor reminiscent of strong energy into the new menu. This chicken emphasizes the rich umami and spiciness unique to soy sauce. Both bone-in and boneless chicken are available, easing the dilemma for those who prefer either. Bone-in chicken is 2,800 KRW per piece / 19,800 KRW for 8 pieces. If you want to enjoy chicken and beer, it is recommended to try it with KFC’s own ‘Kich’ beer.
