There's one right near the soedaemun prison.

Yeah come to think of it me and my friend raved about it afterwards... Really light but cripsy and tasty batter, wellcooked chicken, good saengmekkju....

ah thats awesome, thats totally near enough for me to ride there. its awesome chicken and a great price too. any more specific directions?

[crossmr]

There is one near konkuk university too. Definitely a franchise. They seem to be making their chicken spicier than usual, at least at this location. Good chicken though.

that is the link to their website with the store list. No maps that I can see, but you could search for an area with the drop down menu and see if there is one there, then pop it in daum maps.

A tad of topic and a bit of a hijack, but I have helped out, soooo....

Last night I had these small things on skewers at a street stall where he was also selling the usual -takk gochi- chicken on a stick.

He had two varieties of these things I tried. They come from a chicken and are very dark red meat. They are small and there were two varieties. One very chewy and tough but yummy and the other was the same thing but soft and not as yummy. You get 3 sticks for 1,000 won.

What are they?

I think they must be chicken a'holes or bladders or something as when I asked him he made a chicken impression and then pointed to his gut...

Anyway, whatever they are - I LIKE EM!

I have a Boor Chicken only a 3 min walk from my apartment. This is in Daegu, by the way. Bliss.

Apparently, the guy who started the franchise worked for KFC for many years, then left to form his own company. I like it, and although it's cheap, you only get about half the portion of other chicken places, so it's not really that great of a deal
