Singer Sung Si Kyung is diving deeper into the liquor business! After the huge success of his Gyeong Takju 12° makgeolli, his brand Gyeong (경) is now gearing up to release Gyeong Soju, and they want your help with the bottle design!

On December 19, the brand announced, “We’re launching Gyeong Soju in the new year. To celebrate, we’re holding a contest to create a beautiful glass bottle design that reflects the brand’s values.”

The contest is open to everyone, from professionals to students, and will run from December 18 to January 13. Winners will be announced on January 24. The grand prize winner will receive 4 million KRW and the honor of having their name or brand engraved on the final product. The runner-up will also receive 1 million KRW.

What makes this contest even more special? The brand will cover all platform fees, ensuring no financial burden for participants. “We want to support creative talent while collaborating with innovative designers,” the statement added.

This is a rare opportunity for designers, with the grand prize winner’s name or brand featured on the bottle—a gesture that’s not often seen in similar competitions.

Fans and consumers are buzzing with excitement, anticipating the release of Gyeong Soju. The product is still in development, and details about its release date will be announced later.

With this contest, Gyeong aims to connect with the public while showcasing creativity and quality in its new product. Will Sung Si Kyung’s next venture in the liquor world be another hit? Stay tuned!

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
