It tastes sour and watery, and smells like vinegar. – Klooky Oct 30 '18 at 13:30

[same question (answered)](https://www.reddit.com/r/korea/comments/8mgkt1/my_boyfriend_bought_this_liquor_in_korea_and_cant/). Should we trust the source? – user3664452 Oct 30 '18 at 15:11

@user3664452 The Reddit post looks like an empty bottle held by a female; OP’s has contents and [appears to be] held by a male :) – Oliver Nov 02 '18 at 04:24

@Oliver I didn't want to question the OP. I meant: can I use Reddit as a reliable source for my answer? (Incidentally, from the answer by farmersteve I guess that, at least in this case, Reddit was a reliable source) – user3664452 Nov 30 '18 at 08:24

Oh-Bal-Ju is liquor from N.Korea. (of course you can buy in S.Korea)
It is made with 9 traditional Korean medicinal herb.
OH means crow, Bal means hair, Ju means liquor - If you drink this, you can live long as crow and white hair will change to black.
You can see a picture of it here North Korean DMZ store
