Hot 6ix .. acutally means hot 69 ? watching the gsl stream i looked at the actual logo and the ix really looks like the old IX ( 10-1 = 9 ) the roman number for 9.. searching for this and skipping a few porn links, i got to pages like HotBlood or jump beverages wich also have a enegy drink with korean symbols on it ( http://www.jumpbeverages.com/hot.htm ) look at "Pure Energy " as is said just a theory but maybe it's a korean version of this brand  !
I said that to my friend as soon as I saw it.
It's a double pun
'Hot Six" sounds and looks like 'hot sex' and also spelling it as '6ix' it's 69.
Very clever.

It's a pretty generic energy drink full of that taurine flavor (I assume that's what gives energy drinks their uniform flavor?)

It is strange for a firm to sponsor these and not bother with the North American market. I admit not knowing much about the Korean energy drink scene,v but I suspect that the US/Canada market may be a bit more lucrative, given similar economic demographics with a far larger population. I would think an English website with some availability in major cities (NY, Chicago, LA, and maybe San Fran or Boston) should not be too much effort and expense. The payoff would be enormous. Besides, I always love Asian drinks. I go out of my way for Taiwanese and Japanese canned coffee, Taiwanese bottled Oolong tea and Korean whatever-the-f@#k-it-is-called ginseng root in a bottle. I also buy those awful tasting brown and red instant ginseng packs. They taste like a yak's backside, but supposedly pack an energy boost. A Korean energy drink that boasted its Korean energy would sell well in my opinion.

Amazing! I just bought it in Brazil at a small korean shop :D
Has a real nice unique flavour, definetly better than Monster. Also prize is pretty competitive, two of those lovely boys (each 250 ml) cost less than one Monster (less than 500ml)
On the can its all written in korean, but I can read "BCAA" on it, which is an amino acid, usually used for sport activities and body building.
Will ask the korean to order more of it ^^

Hot Six is beautiful. I had it while I was in Korea and I feel in love. Forever on a quest to find it here in the U.S.
