Forest Bathing or Alcohol Bathing?
August 14th: Pick your “Green”.
Green Day (그린 데이)
For couples, “Green” means nature. For singles, “Green” means the iconic glass bottles of Soju.
Nature Date
It’s peak summer. Couples escape the city heat to go to mountains or forests. “San-lim-yok” (Forest Bathing) is the vibe.
Soju Solace
Singles gather to drink Soju (which is cheap, strong, and omnipresent). It’s a tongue-in-cheek tradition to wash away the loneliness.
Gorpcore Aesthetics
Hiking in Korea is a fashion runway. Couples coordinate their high-end trekking gear.
Beat the Heat
August in Korea is hot and humid. The escape to the shady woods (or an air-conditioned bar) is necessary for survival.
Health Walk
The idea is to focus on health and wellness together. Sweating up a mountain is a bonding experience.
The National Spirit
You can’t talk about Korea without Soju. On Green Day, consumption spikes.
Fresh air or fresh spirits
