🌙 Why “one cup before bed” is attracting attention now

There is a category at Olive Young stores that becomes a hot topic every time new stock arrives.

Nighttime diet drinks, commonly known as “nighttime supplements.”

The thinking behind this trend can be broadly divided into two points.

One is the growing belief that growth hormone, which is said to be secreted during sleep, may be related to body-shape management.

Another point is that it is believed to help gently manage the sharp rise in blood sugar levels after dinner, helping you aim for a state where fat is less likely to accumulate.

One of the keywords in 2026 K-Beauty is “body management without overexertion.”

Rather than relying solely on exercise or dietary restrictions, the idea of incorporating care into your daily “sleep” routine seems to be gaining acceptance among many people.

Each of the three types has a different “focus of care.”

They can be organized into three directions: care for puffiness and sleep quality, metabolism support, and dual care for sleep and body fat.

① セリボックス ナイト（SERY BOX）

This is a series known in Korea as a “classic nighttime supplement.”

The 2026 version is mainly available in a concentrated liquid form and is introduced as a formula combining coleus forskohlii and L-theanine.

It is considered suitable for those concerned about feeling refreshed the next morning or having trouble falling asleep (effects vary from person to person).

② FOODOLOGY Burningology Tea（FOODOLOGY）

This series is popularly known as “red water.”

In 2026, a caffeine-free, warming-care version for nighttime use was reportedly newly introduced.

Based on the idea of supporting circulation while warming the body from within, its berry flavor is said to make it easy to incorporate as a substitute for something sweet.

③ DAEWON Pharmaceutical Sleep Shot（DAEWON 大元製薬）

As an ampoule drink developed by a pharmaceutical company, this item is attracting attention in 2026 for its high level of trust.

It has been introduced as having obtained Korean functional labeling certification for both “sleep quality support” and “body fat care,” and is said to be suitable for those who want to efficiently care for their body even with short sleep.

Some users say they “felt refreshed the next morning,” but experiences vary from person to person.

 

⏰ 3 Key Points for Taking It Effectively

The “basic rules for night-time supplements” that have become popular in Korea can be simply summarized into three points.

1. Take it 30 minutes to 1 hour before bedtime

It is generally considered ideal to fall asleep after the ingredients have circulated throughout the body.

Taking it too close to bedtime may leave your body busy digesting it, so allowing some time is a good guideline.

2. Take it with warm or lukewarm water

It is said that consuming a large amount of cold water at night may cool down the internal organs.

Especially for those concerned about feeling cold, it is common to take it with water at room temperature or warmer.

3. Continue taking it every day for at least one week

Since supplements are not pharmaceutical products, the basic approach is to look for changes in how you feel through “consistent use” rather than expecting immediate effects.

Rather than judging after just 1–2 days, it is generally recommended to continue taking it for at least one week first.
