Turns out, beer goes pretty well with K-pop

An Oriental Brewery facility in South Korea

SEOUL -- South Korean brewers are increasingly shifting their focus to other Asian markets, hoping to cash in on the popularity of Korean culture and make up for stagnant growth at home.

Oriental Brewery, a unit of the world's largest beer maker, Anheuser-Busch InBev, has been increasing exports by over 10% every year since 2011. Oriental used to mainly make and export other companies' brands of beer. Today, it is exporting more of its own suds, such as Cass and Premier OB.
