The OLED display shows the remaining battery, cartridge, and suction frequency in real-time, enhancing the convenience for consumers. The previously released "Reel Hybrid 2.0 Suhyang" and "Volvik Golf Edition" limited editions have also received positive feedback from consumers.


Lin Wang-seok, head of the KT&G NGP Division, said, "Through the partnership between KT&G's technology-focused 'Reel Hybrid 2.0' and golf equipment brand Volvik, we aim to further satisfy consumers. By collaborating with various brands and keeping up with consumer trends, we will continue to lead the e-cigarette market for tobacco products.
