E-Mart's No Brand Officially Launches Five Products with Hite Jinro
E-Mart’s No Brand announced on December 8 a new collaboration with Hite Jinro, unveiling five limited-edition products under the playful banner of 'Toad Homesul Pocha.' This lineup brings together the approachable, budget-friendly spirit of No Brand with Hite Jinro’s iconic toad character, creating a range of snacks at a time when interest in home drinking and home parties is surging, driven in part by year-end gatherings and the rising cost of dining out.
The collaboration features five distinct items: Fire Squid Snack, Jikhwamu Bone Buldakbal, Jangmyeon Sock Fish Cake Soup, Kalkalpocha Udon, and Onion Potato Jeonmix. Together, the set provides a diverse selection of flavors, offering a complete home-side dish experience for just 13,400 won.
The products are available in No Brand stores and will also be sold online through E-Mart and SSG.com’s E-Mart Mall starting December 11.
