Her first encounter with "makgeolli," the traditional Korean alcoholic drink often dubbed rice wine, traces back to her trips to Korea for market research. She first noticed that the Korean makgeolli scene was changing quickly. "New bars were forming in Korea that put a spotlight on craft makgeolli. A new generation of people started to drink makgeolli and the average age of makgeolli brewers was getting younger. I saw that more and more makgeolli brewers, brands and bars were popping up every week," Pak said.

"Looking at the changing landscape, I sensed a movement happening here. Makgeolli should have been receiving this attention a long time ago. There were many stigmas and there used to be a wide variety of options of alcoholic beverages besides makgeolli. But because Korean culture, in general, is becoming so popular globally, I felt like it's time for people to be introduced to real makgeolli and real soju," she added.
캐롤 박은 "변화하는 상황을 보면서 이곳에서 새로운 움직임이 일어나고 있음을 알았다. 막걸리는 예전부터 이러한 관심을 받아야 했다. 예전에는 다양한 종류의 술이 있어 막걸리를 제외한 다른 술들이 많았다. 하지만 한국 문화가 전 세계적으로 인기를 얻으면서 사람들에게 진짜 막걸리와 진짜 소주를 소개할 시점이라는 생각이 들었다"고 덧붙였다.
