Pepero is a Korean snack favorite loved by many for its many flavor options. Eating on the way home, in class, or while studying is very easy. You can see kpop idols like EXO on some packaging. If you want to get some of your own, get our Pepero Korean snack bundle for your own supply!

The fluffy Korean treat is another classic option among high schoolers. Choco Pies are individually packaged in the box for you to take on the go and are available in different flavors, such as red velvet and caramel!

#3 Sangeobap

Sangeobap is a seafood-flavored snack that is crispy, sweet, and salty--a perfect combination! The bite-sized Korean snack is shaped of sea animals, from whales to squid. Sometimes you may also get it from our SnackFever Korean snack box.

Some students love the taste of seafood and a dash of saltiness in their Korean snacks. Shrimp and Crab Chips are the favorite backpack snacks among high schoolers. The crab flavor and crunchiness of the chips make you want to take another bite and more.

Can drinks be considered Korean snacks? I say yes! Forget soda, and get Milkis instead! One fan favorite non alcoholic Korean drink is Milkis. It's a carbonated milky beverage that comes in different flavors.

#9 Yogurt Drinks

Remember those yogurt drinks Peter Kavinsky drove to the other side of town to get for Lara Jean in the famous Netflix rom-com To All the Boys I've Loved Before? Well, this is the drink! This tiny yogurt beverage is adorable, tastes delicious, and, because it's a probiotic, is actually good for you! However, only a few, or else it may have an inverse effect.
