It had been over a month since I’d had a drink,
soju-beer suddenly appeared in my dreams, just like my ex-boyfriend.
Even when I woke up from my dream, the sight of soju and beer lingered before my eyes, and I was overcome with longing for quite some time.
So, to get my urgent fix of soju and beer, I immediately called a friend.
We met at the night market in Jongno 3-ga.
A bustling, youthful atmosphere, a cool spring breeze, and a cold soju-beer mix sliding down my throat.
With that moving first sip, I finally felt truly alive.
It feels too selfish to keep this thrilling energy all to myself, so I’ve put together this list.
