Sparing amounts of fruit juice. If you don't mind me asking, how much do you spend on food a month? I've heard that it's very cheap to eat in Korea.
I usually spend around 100,000won (use XE.com to convert it :D) It can be extremely cheap to eat here if you don't buy your fruits and veggies from the big supermarkets (or you just eat cheap crap like ramen and kimbap.) I find that it's much cheaper to go to small market stalls for my veggies/fruit. A lot of imported items are expensive, but for things like pasta sauce, dressings etc it's not hard to find a much cheaper domestically made alternative.
If you're a healthy eater then you can make a very nice meal for less than 3,000won. (Such as grilled tofu in a marinade with some steamed vegetables. Plus a yogurt and/or some fruit for dessert.)
Fast-food is more expensive, but it's still pretty cheap to get a big meal. Eating out at Korean restaurants is the cheapest option though.

Jesus ... 100,000 won is around 8,000 yen; I spend more on food a week. Every month I spend something like 35,000 yen on food, which is something along the lines of 430,000 won.
My friend lives in Korea and apparently he eats out every day just because he's too lazy to cook every meal. He said that you can get a full meal for something like $4 US, or fine Italian for $15 US. When I go out for good Italian I spend $60-$100 US minimum .

What I had today
Breakfast - 3 WeetBix
School - 0.5 kg of Gummi Bear, Chicken Sandwich, 2 Cereal Bars, an Apple and some Grapes.
After School - Family Chips, 1L of Soft Drink, Coffee
Dinner - Rice and Chicken
Lol, this sounds terrible! The Gummi Bear today was an exception, most of the rest is pretty normal. I'm a fairly skinny kid though, too much running.

Man you really need to cut that 1L of soft drink per day bullshit.
You're going to get diabetes no matter how much running you do.
