Gangjin's "Heart Strawberries."



The heart-shaped strawberries (하트딸기) they grow in Gangjin county's Gudong-myeon make the news every once in a while---and made this blog in June 2009---this time because of White Day on March 15th. You can order yours from the official Naver cafe "하트딸기카페" (http://cafe.naver.com/icigo), with a url for some reason containing the Japanese word for strawberry.


From 2009.

They call it *smack* the "Love Very," and a box of six costs 25,000 won.

Not a bad idea. Korean strawberries are yummy while boxes of Korean chocolate aren't so yummy.

Large strawberries have zero flavor. And they just keep breeding them to be larger and larger. I ate a large Korean strawberry the other day that was like biting into water.

That's so cool! But I probably wouldn't pay that much for just strawberries..

By the way, I love your blog :)
