Samyang Foods Revamps 'Buldak Sauce' Design... "Challenging Global No.1"

Visual Emphasis on Intense Spiciness with Package Renewal
Renewed Buldak Sauce Unveiled for the First Time at Coachella in the US

Samyang Foods announced on the 10th that it will renew the design of its spicy sauce brand 'Buldak Sauce' and newly introduce it to the global market.

This renewal was planned by actively reflecting the needs of new consumers who are encountering hot sauce for the first time and the MZ generation who are familiar with digital content and experiential marketing. The company aims to convey the identity of Buldak Sauce, which holds an overwhelming number one position in the domestic market, more intuitively to overseas consumers as well.

Accordingly, the brand identity was further strengthened through visuals that visually emphasize the intense spiciness and a comprehensive package design innovation. On the front of the product, a 'flame' graphic symbolizing the intense spiciness of Buldak Sauce was applied to increase visual attention, and a flame-shaped QR code was inserted to allow consumers easy access to various fun-filled content.

Samyang Foods plans to accelerate the brand's digital transformation through the QR code-based interactive package and provide consumer experiences that encourage active participation from the global Buldak fandom. Through this, based on an omnichannel strategy that organically connects digital and physical channels, the brand aims to become deeply embedded in the lifestyles of global consumers.

To commemorate this re-release, Samyang Foods will carry out various online and offline marketing activities. In particular, through an official partnership with the globally renowned 'Coachella,' the brand presence will be further strengthened on the global stage. The renewed Buldak Sauce will be unveiled for the first time at the Coachella site and will be available sequentially in online and offline stores in Korea and the United States from early this month. Additionally, plans are in place to expand collaborations with K-pop artists who lead the global K-spicy culture.

Kim Nam-sook, head of the Buldak brand division at Samyang Foods, said, "This renewal of Buldak Sauce will strengthen the brand's unique intense spiciness as a differentiated competitive edge in the global market and will leap forward as a global brand deeply embedded in the lifestyles of consumers worldwide."
