Honestly, this is the first time I’ve seen this manhwa, but as a Korean, I feel a bit sad because I think I understand the context behind why the author chose that name. I’ll continue my explanation below. (1/n)
Since I felt the explanation here was insufficient, I’ve added some more wordplay parody-brand references from various manhwa.

I feel that my explanation of this point was insufficient, so I’ll provide some additional details. (1/n)
Q. Why “Allah,” of all things?
It’s a play on words for Korean speakers.
“Hollys Coffee” is written as “할리스 커피” in Hangul. And “ALLAH’S COFFEE,” the name of the coffee shop in the comic, is written as “알라스 커피” in Hangul. (6/n)
