I guess Korean food labeling laws are similar to us- <5 calories/serving=0
If anyone was curious, all zero calorie sodas/energy drinks/etc have some non zero calories, a trivial amount.

You’ll find this even more mildly interesting: even diet and zero calorie drinks that claim to have 0 calories have some calories. They’re able to get away with marketing it as that because the amount of calories it has is less than 1. A more accurate calorie label for those would be <1 cal.

The zeroes are just doing cheerleading and accidentally forming an 8.

I bet if you look at the serving size it’ll say two servings per can. If I recall correctly you’re allowed to round down on calories so the total is always an increment of five. Therefore anything under five calories is legally rounded down to zero calories.

You burn more than 8 calories drinking it.
It’s why celery is actually negative calories; takes more energy to eat than it provides.

This is actually quite common even in the states. If your food has below a certain amount of calories, but more than zero, you can still call it a zero-calorie food.

3.2 per 100ml is allowed to be rounded to 0

some calories is healthier than no calories. There's still loads of artificial sweeteners in it though. Enjoy! :)
