    Korea should be taxing cigarettes and alcohol more to make up for tax shortfalls. Cigarettes are way too cheap for a developed country. It’s just so frustrating that they bend the knee to the alcohol and cigarette companies

    Just bring back more beer choices. I don’t need 30 different grain alcohol sugar drinks flavored with wood chips and artificial flavorings.

    The craft beer selection was improving before this garbage hit the market.

  3. Korean Government ~ People are choosing to drink less alcohol. Can’t have that, better cut taxes to encourage people to drink more.

    Also Korean Government ~ Smoking weed is worse than rape.
