Singer Sung Si-kyung is launching his first distilled soju following makgeolli.

According to Sung Si-kyung's side on the 25th, Sung Si-kyung will release Gyeong Soju 41 degrees on the 1st of next month.

'Gyeong Soju 51 Degrees First Batch' is a new product newly introduced by the liquor brand 'Gyeong' following Gyeong Takju. 'Gyeong', which has been developing its brand primarily around takju, will expand its domain to include distilled soju through this new product launch and broaden its brand LINE-up into various liquor categories.

This product is the first production batch of distilled soju introduced by 'Gyeong' for the first time, prepared in limited quantities, adding to its scarcity.

On this day, Sung Si-kyung announced the launch of Gyeong Soju on his personal account, stating, "Gyeong Soju is finally coming out. It's 51 percent ABV. I really agonized over what ABV to set, but in the end, the most satisfying taste came at a high ABV. Even before the release, it received awards in the United States and Europe," and added, "Since it is a liquor with a high ABV, it's not something I would recommend to just anyone, but I think those who say they can drink a bit of alcohol will like it quite a lot."

'Gyeong Soju 51 Degrees First Batch' is sold in a single 300ml capacity and includes dedicated packaging. Members who have purchased Gyeong Takju at least once are eligible to purchase up to one bottle per person. Given that the First Batch has limited quantities, it is expected to sell out quickly immediately after launch.

Gyeong Soju 51 Degrees received recognition from global liquor competitions even before its release. The product received a Spirit Silver award with 91 points at IWSC (International Wine & Spirit Competition) 2026, followed by a Silver award at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition (SFWSC) 2026 and a Silver Medal in the soju category at the International Spirits Challenge (ISC) 2026. It has been receiving continuous positive evaluations on international stages even before its official release, raising expectations for the new product.

A representative of the brand 'Gyeong ()' explained, "'Gyeong Soju' is a liquor made to enjoy the taste and aroma slowly, just like its high 51 percent ABV," and added, "If you want to enjoy it a bit more smoothly, we recommend experiencing it as a 'mixed drink' together with Gyeong Takju."

Meanwhile, 'Gyeong' is a liquor brand developed based on singer Sung Si-kyung's tastes and experiences with liquor. Starting with the 'Gyeong Takju' LINE-up and now presenting up to this 'Gyeong Soju 51 Degrees First Batch', it is expanding its product categories from takju to distilled soju, building its own unique liquor LINE-up.
