Moon Hee-jun reveals H.O.T. beverage briefly beat Coca-Cola in sales
Moon Hee-jun recently shared nostalgic memories of the H.O.T. era during an episode of Same Bed Different Dreams 2 on SBS. The segment, broadcast on the 6th, featured Hong Kyung-min and her family visiting a 50-year-old snack history museum in Ganghwa, which houses over 9,000 snack wrappers and 3,000 glass bottles collected over 20 years.
The museum’s director, who built the facility using items dug up from the ground, sparked a wave of nostalgia among the guests, including Kim Goo-ra, Lee Ji-hye, Seo Jang-hoon, and Jo Woo-jong. Moon Hee-jun, in particular, was reminded of his time filming commercials for H.O.T. when he saw a display of Hammer candy.
He revealed that H.O.T. had their own beverage, which sold 45 million cans in just five months, generating 18 billion won in revenue. Moon Hee-jun added that the beverage briefly outperformed Coca-Cola in sales, a surprising fact he shared with the audience.
