It is important to encourage the restoration of the production of traditional Korean liquors, which is being undertaken by individuals, companies, and the government. The flavours of traditional liquors differ and depend on the environment and raw materials. This study on the traditional Gangwondo liquor is based on literature review and oral tradition. The history of and the scientific rationale behind the use of malt, which is a characteristic feature of the traditional Gangwondo liquor manufacturing process, must be systematically researched. It is important that independent two-step fermentation is used in Gangwondo, while in other regions simultaneous two-step fermentation is used. We expect that the current research on fermentation will be useful for the production of various traditional liquors. The total production of traditional liquors will need to be increased to meet the needs of the world festival, 2018 Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang.

In the Joseon dynasty one in seven houses enjoyed their home-brewed alcoholic beverages, which lead to the development of a variety of Korean traditional liquors throughout the country. However, when Korea was under Japanese rule, Korean traditional alcoholic beverages disappeared during this period. Since the 1980s, the Korean government has tried to revitalize the traditional alcoholic drinks unique to Korean culture and taste. Nevertheless, the development of traditional liquors is subjected to many constraints due to current market demand and liquor laws. To address this, we propose some suggestions that should be implemented ahead. First, it is necessary to revise the term traditional liquor including makgeolli as 'Korean sool' to expand the market size. Secondly, the use of koji and excellent yeast isolated from nuruk should be scientifically modernized. Lastly, the government should establish the National Korean Sool Research Institute. These practices will contribute to the succession of Korean liquor and its globalization.

First, It is investigated of drinking frequency by gender, 51.3 percent of the male adults drunk once or twice a week, and 33.2 percent of the female adults drunk once or twice a month. Thus, the men drunk more often than the women. By age, the adults who were in their 20s and 30s were far different from those who were in their 50s above in drinking frequency. Second, regarding what kind of liquor they enjoyed, the men enjoyed Soju the most, followed by beer and traditional liquors. The women enjoyed beer the most, followed by Soju and wine. The favorite liquor of the men was Soju, followed by beer and traditional liquor, and the women most liked for beer, followed by wine and Soju. The female adults preferred low-proof liquor more than the male adults. Third, concerning their awareness of traditional liquor, Andong-soju was most widely viewed as traditional liquor, which were followed by Munbaeju, Gyeongju-gyodongbeopju, Gyeongju-beopju, Gukhwaju, Ssal- makgeolri, and Geumsan-insamju. Overall, they were rarely aware what traditional liquor was. Fourth, as to purchase experience, the men and the older people had more experience to buy traditional drinks than the women and the younger ones. Fifth, as for anju (dishes for traditional drinks), they believed that panfried food and Kimchi should be served with coarse liquor. Panfried and streamed dishes were considered to be good complements to Takju (rice wine) and Cheongju (clear strained rice wine), and pot stew and soup were looked upon as good complements to distilled liquor. The above-mentioned findings illustrated that in order to step up the development of the traditional liquor industry, perpetual research efforts should be put into adding new tastes to unique traditional liquor drinks. And it's required to commercialize those drinks, and multiple P.R. and marketing strategies should be prepared to promote their sales.

The goal of this study was to screen and characterize the physiological functions of Korean traditional wines (TW) and liquors (TL). Forty-two TW and TL were collected and evaluated for quality and cardiovascular activities. Ethanol content ranged from $9.0%{\sim}41%$, and pH ranged from $3.0{\sim}7.8$, and they also contained 0.01% to 0.67% of total acid. Samples contained a maximum of 2.0% of crude protein and $0.1%{\sim}14.0%$ of reducing sugar. Commercial CM-wine showed the highest antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, 85.9%. The greatest fibrinolytic activity and platelet aggregation inhibitory activity were also found in commercial CM-wine (31.8U) and commercial SS2-wine (38.6 %), respectively. Commercial SHBI-liquor showed the highest HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity, 78%. The ACE inhibitor from commercial CM-wine was a peptide compound and also showed an antihypertensive effect in spontaneous hypertensive rats at a dosage of 1.5 mg/kg.

본 연구는 대구 경북지역 20세 이상 성인 411명을 대상으로 전통주의 이용 현황 및 소비자의 요구도를 분석한 결과로 조사 대상자는 남자 204명, 여자 207명, 20대 29.9%, 30대 26.5%, 40대 20.7%, 50대 이상이 22.9%였으며 기혼이 51.8%로 미혼보다 많았다. 소비자들이 즐겨마시는 술은 소주, 맥주, 전통주, 와인, 양주 순으로 나타났으며 좋아하는 술은 소주, 맥주, 와인, 전통주, 양주 순이었다. 좋아하는 전통주는 탁주가 가장 높았으며 섭취 빈도는 특정한 날 많이 마시며 집에서 음용하는 경우가 많았다. 전통주에 대한 인지도 및 기호도가 높은 것은 탁주가 남녀 모두 가장 높게 나타났으며 전통주에 대한 소비자의 요구도에 대하여 IPA 분석 결과 다양성, 기능성, 숙취해소, 인식확대에 대한 개선 및 개발이 요구되어 졌다. 전통주에 대하여 대부분의 조사대상자들이 전통주에 대하여 관심이 많으며 소비전망도 긍정적인 의사를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한 편 맛있으면서도 외국 주류에 결코 뒤떨어지지 않는 맛이라고 하였으나 두통 및 숙취와 같은 부작용으로 전통주 음용에 장애요인으로 나타났다. 현재 전통주에 대한 정부의 관심과 지원이 고조되고 탁주와 저도수 선호 추세 및 웰빙 트렌드 등으로 높은 성장세를 보이나 전통 고유의 맛을 유지하면서 새로운 맛과 다양성 및 기능성이 가미된 전통주 개발이 필요하리라 사료된다. 또한 대중화 요인에서 가장 시급했던 인식 확대 및 전통주에 대한 올바른 교육의 필요성을 살펴볼 때 전통주 개발 이전에 소비자의 요구와 기대에 적합한 전통주 컨셉을 파악하여 다양한 홍보와 마케팅을 수립하여 소비 및 판매를 촉진시키는 연구가 필요할 것이다.
