The number ’257‘ on the product originates from the address of the mascot character ’Saerogumi,‘ which is ’257 Sange-ri, Okgye-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea.‘
In mid-April 2023, 640ml PET products were launched, and since August 2023, they have also been sold in overseas markets, including North America.
