The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) is claiming a new milestone1 -- the invention of hangover-free alcohol. 

朝鲜宣布了一项重大发明：一种能“防止宿醉”的酒。 
 
The state newspaper reported that Taedonggang Foodstuff2 Factory has introduced a ginseng liquor with 30% to 40% alcohol and, theoretically, no horrible morning after feeling. 
 
The drink features six-year-old, indigenous3 Kaesong organic "insam," a Korean name for ginseng. 
 
Developing the drink took years of research to figure out a way to minimize the bitter insam taste. 
 
The factory decided4 to use boiled rice instead of sugar which "promoted the sweet and savoury tastes of insam by weakening its bitter taste with the delicious flavor of the boiled and scorched5 glutinous6 rice," according to The Pynongyang Times. 
 
In theory, the hangover-fighting effects come from the use of scorched rice and from the ginseng's "medicinal effect." 
 
The nation has already poured accolades7 on the new drink, giving it a quality medal for "preserving national smack8." 
 
The paper praised the product because it "exudes9 national flavor" and said that it has "already been registered as a national scientific and technological10 hit."
