Haitai Bon Bon Orange Juice with sac

Kyu invited some friends over for a Korean BBQ and Grace brought a case of this juice. This BonBon juice has been around for a long time since the 1980's I think. Commercial goes back to that year. Still Koreans love the juice with sac (pulp). And there's a competition brand Lotte SacSac. Both brands have Orange with pulp and Grape Juice with actual peeled grapes...yummm. I like the grape ones! Both brands have been around for a long time and I'm sure people have their preference.

I liked this Bon Bon Orange Juice better than Lotte Sac Sac. I haven't tried grape ones for a long time so I don't know which one I like. I think people over at the BBQ were saying Lotte Grape is better and Haitai BonBon Orange is better. I'll try both brands soon.

 

I found several old commercials...couldn't find any new ones...

I don't know if they make anymore commercials?
Anyhow it's still fun to watch the old commercials.

Scroll down & enjoy!

 

 

 

8First one was made in 1990. Kim Min Jung (actress) is in it. If you know her, you'll see that she looks the same. Ha ha.

This one was made in 1991 and animated. Ha Ha.

Korean Binggrae’s Banana Flavored Milk

Korean Banana Flavored Milk
This is Binggrae's the Banana Flavored Milk! This is Korean version packaging of the milk. I'm not sure how many non-Korean would have tried this, but this is one of the 'traditional' Korean drink and its popularity has been going strong even after 35 years. A lot of Koreans have nostalgic childhood memory of this milk since most Koreans went to public bathhouse/sauna regularly and right after the nice hot bath I'm sure many people made it a ritual to drink this Banana Milk.
As you can see the packaging is itself is very interesting and easy to remember.

I visited Binggrae's site and they say that the original bottle design was inspired by Korean traditional jar called Hanggari like below.
