I served in South Korea. Soju is not a weaker vodka; I can assure you of that.

    Soju is to Korea as sake is to Japan. OP mentioned Korea so it’s unlikely a mistake. And Sake is a similar rage for abv. It’s naturally brewed and not distilled. Most yeast dies around 20% abv so virtually no naturally brewed product can get stronger. Vodka and other spirits are distilled so the skys the limit. Most are 40% for historic tax reasons.

      Not sure why you wanted to give me a geography lesson when I obviously know what it is. Soju is far stronger than sake. It may be fortified in some cases.

        Because the way your original comment is worded it can be understood in two ways: either the soju or the vodka was written wrong. You meant the vodka, they thought you meant the soju.
