Jjondeugi and Danjjak Candy... CU Launches Nostalgic Snack Series
[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] CU is launching a nostalgic snack series targeting hipsters in their teens and twenties on the 26th.
'Hipster' refers to people who do not follow major trends of the era but pursue their own unique culture. In Korea, items such as coffee shops, gamakjip (Korean-style pubs), and roller rinks?foods and fashions from the parents' generation that young people have not experienced?have become popular items among hipsters.
In line with this trend, CU's nostalgic snack series includes eight types such as Jjondeugi, Danjjak Candy, and Samgeori Candy. These snacks, which those who grew up in the 70s and 80s may have tried at least once, have been recreated in both packaging and taste.
Danjjak Candy is designed with the concept of sharing candy with a close friend, containing half strawberry-flavored and half grape-flavored candies in one container, allowing you to enjoy two flavors at once. The price is 1,500 won. Samgeori Candy features four colorful flavors coated like a traffic light. The price is 400 won.
