Viral SNS Item 'Beer Vest': Enjoy 3.5L of Beer via a Straw
During the episode, the cast showcased the 'Beer Vest,' which is gaining popularity on Chinese social media. The product is a vest-shaped garment designed to hold liquid, allowing users to drink beer through a straw attached to the vest. The cast members filled the vest with a total of 3.5 liters of beer, which cost approximately 12,000 won.
The cast members expressed how refreshing it was to drink the beer directly from the vest through a straw. According to on-screen captions and the cast's remarks, the vest is drawing attention for its quirky visual of 'wearing' your beer. However, it was noted that no one was actually wearing the vest in public at the site.
Qingdao's Iconic 'Zhanqiao Pier' and Local Food Tour
The cast members visited Zhanqiao Pier, an iconic landmark of Qingdao. According to the program, the pier was originally a 200m long structure built during the Qing Dynasty in the 1800s to defend against foreign invasions, but it was expanded to 440m in the 1930s to attract tourists. An octagonal pavilion sits at the end, offering scenic views.
At the next restaurant, the group sampled specialty foods of Qingdao. In particular, 'Original Beer'—a premium draft beer that undergoes no filtration, dilution, or sterilization—received significant attention. Once a rare brew reserved only for brewers, this beer can typically only be tasted by visiting the Qingdao Brewery. The cast described the flavor as having strong carbonation and a savory profile.
For food pairings, they were served a signature Qingdao dish: seasoned clams. Considered a must-eat for locals and visitors alike, the dish is characterized by a garlic and chili seasoning. The cast shared their impressions of the local flavors, noting the generous portions and pricing.
