Kissing with caviar and Krug
In T.O.P's song "Seoul Chaos," there's a line that caught my attention: "Kissing with caviar and Krug"
I started investigating and found out that "krug kiss" exists.
The Krug Kiss is a specific tasting technique where a dollop of premium sturgeon caviar is eaten directly from the back of your hand, immediately followed by a generous sip of Krug Champagne.
Instead of using traditional mother-of-pearl spoons, this method relies on your own skin to unlock the hidden depths of both the wine and the roe.
To experience the Krug Kiss correctly, you must follow a few steps:
A small piece of caviar is placed on the back of the hand in the crease between the thumb and forefinger. I wonder if they did it on top of Mr. Kwon's smiley face tattoo 🤤
You have to wait about 15 seconds for your body heat to warm the caviar, which seems to release the aromatic oils. Then you bring your hand to your lips and lick the caviar, but don't eat it yet! Take a generous sip of chilled Krug champagne and mix everything in your mouth, letting the caviar roe burst.
The truth is, it seems like a very sensual experience, especially if you do it with your lover.
And since I ship GTOP and Mr. Choi specifically mentioned this experience in a song, I looked to see if there was a connection with Mr. Kwon and I found these posts on IG
Mr. Kwon's brand account, peaceminusone, which he was then using more as a private personal account, responded to Mr. Choi with a:
He also responded to another of Mr. Choi's post about Krug champagne with some star emojis ✨
Mr. Kwon mentioned on a TV show that he usually keeps caviar in his refrigerator and that he really likes its taste. On this same show, he also said that he likes to have eggs with truffles for breakfast, something Mr. Choi also mentioned in the song "Stendhal Syndrome" (and we all agree that this song is dedicated to his relationship with Mr. Kwon)
Every line of his lyrics has a backstory; not all of them are about GTOP, but the ones that are are wonderful 🐰🐉
