South Koreans are pioneers in tech and innovation and consume more alcohol per capita than any other nation. So it’s no surprise that Korea is also the birthplace of modern hangover remedies.
We developed Upside in partnership with Korea's leading supplement producer. Our unique formula draws from over 30 years of R&D and herbal ingredients that have been used for generations.
