It’s crazy hot these days — and one of life’s little joys is standing in front of that glowing freezer at the convenience store, trying to choose the perfect ice cream bar.
If you don’t want to line up at a café or spend too much, here are some super refreshing, budget-friendly frozen treats you can grab at GS25, CU, or 7-Eleven in Korea:

1. Watermelon Bar (수박바)
   A total classic! Red and green like a real watermelon, with chocolate “seeds” inside. Super cute and super summery.

2. Jaws Bar (죠스바)
   A sweet-and-sour combo: strawberry and cola flavor on top, lemon slush on the bottom. Shark-shaped and full of childhood nostalgia.

3. Melona (메로나 – Melon bar)
   Rich, creamy, and sweet but not too much. The melon flavor is iconic — soft texture and very satisfying!

4. Dwaeji Bar (돼지바 – “Pig Bar”)
   Crunchy chocolate coating, strawberry ice cream inside. Texture lovers, this one’s for you. Sweet and addictive.

5. Polapo (폴라포)
   Old-school juice ice in a plastic tube — you squeeze it and eat it as it melts. Super cheap, super nostalgic, super cold.

Bonus recommendations:

GS25’s Rice Cake Ice Cream (찰떡아이스) — chewy, stretchy mochi around a soft ice cream center. Unexpectedly good.

7-Eleven often has seasonal collabs — keep an eye out for banana milk, coffee, or even cereal flavors. If you see it, try it!
