Here we have the final iteration of the Zoey cups. We started with the Korean version, then the plain jane Shin, and now the special Burger Hero. I could see consumers being very confused – I certainly was. Anyways, let’s begin.

So I think a few of us got punked by Nongshim. Why do I say this? Well, the US Nongshim came out with two ranges of the KPDH – one that had three different flavors and one that had three different images on the packaging. I ordered three on Walmart’s website – and got three Shin Ramyun regular style. So here’s that. I’ve got all three versions of the Zoey cup – the Korean local version, the US Shin version, and the US ‘burger hero’ version. Confusing, isn’t it? Well, here’s the regular Mira.

Okay, so I don’t live under a rock so I know about these things. In fact, I saw an advert for this awhile back and thought ‘oh – the kids might like this.’ So, I let them check it out and I watched a bit of the movie. I hated it. More than I hate slicing a bagel incorrectly. Well, maybe not that much, but I’m really annoyed by this film. I know that a lot of people really like it and that’s fine. However, I do not. It’s K-Pop’s version of Frozen. I went through that Frozen crap when the kids were really little, so another take on it really isn’t something I can embrace. Plus, the animation is awful. The music is catchy, but not the catchy K-Pop I really like; this is so… Commercial. But I do enjoy a tie-in product and this one’s pretty cool. I should mention that the Korean local version of this (yes, this is made in the United States in a great factory in Rancho Cucamonga, California) came with stickers, and I did hear chatter that people over there were buying tons of Shin, taking out the stickers, then selling sets of those stickers on eBay or their equivalent.
