I had this drink in S.Korea when I visited in 2009, and haven't been able to find it in Canada. A wonderful story about this rice wine: I visited the local Korean grocer after watching this video, armed with the names of the ingredients I needed. I asked the old Korean man at the store for 'Nuruk' (wheat yeast) and he pointed me towards a shelf and quizzically asked "Makgeolli?". We both had a laugh when we realized that he and I both knew I was going home to make hooch. Then he showed me a bag near the Nuruk that read 'Makgeolli Mix'! There's already a kit with rice, yeast, and a filter bag that you can buy to make your own Makgeolli!
Delicious!

It looks like pudding or custard! What does it taste like? Is it clear? Do you drink it cold, or room temp? Or hot? So many questions!
