Foodcore CEO Kim Young-sik, featured on Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire, highlights Yonsei Milk Cream Bread success

Yonsei Milk Cream Bread is once again a hot topic following the appearance of Foodcore CEO Kim Young-sik on EBS's educational program 'Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire'. This cream bread, which even disarmed the famously disciplined Seo Jang-hoon, has sparked a 'bangal-shot' (half-split photo) craze, becoming a mega-hit product selling one every second. The broadcast of CEO Kim Young-sik's inspiring rags-to-riches story, from child laborer to building a bakery empire with 140 billion won in annual sales, has dramatically increased consumer interest in the product.

Foodcore collaborated with CU convenience stores and Yonsei Dairy to launch the 'Yonsei Milk Fresh Cream Bread' series. Breaking the limitations of existing mass-produced breads, they utilized patented multi-directional cream injection technology to create an overwhelmingly generous cream filling that overflows when the bread is split. A key innovation is the cream content, which makes up over 80% of the bread. Popular varieties include the classic milk cream bread, chocolate cream bread, and red bean cream bread, available at CU convenience stores for 2,700 to 2,900 won each (based on the original milk cream bread).

Bloggers praise the Yonsei Milk Cream Bread for its substantial cream volume, balanced sweetness, and soft bread texture. They highlight that the product's appeal to the MZ generation, with its 'more cream than bread' characteristic, led to its 'one per second' sales record. Tips for purchasing, such as checking stock or reserving through the Pocket CU app to avoid wasted trips, are also shared. Bloggers note that CEO Kim Young-sik's self-made success story adds an extra layer of trust and fascination to the product.
