I chanced across it in the basement of the new Lotte / IMAX building downtown.
It's at the base of the escalator.
...and the lineup was only about 120 people long. |

Krispy Kreme sucks. Yeah I'll admit that I stood in line at point when they were first introduced back home. But I've had better doughnuts from mom'n pop places that sell Chinese food and doughnuts!  |

It will be interesting to see how long Krispy Kreme lasts in Korea.
I don't see them going into Japan because the turnovers of trends in Japan are too fast - about a year.
Korea may be the same. For example, these Turkish kebab places. They might all be closing soon.
Incidentally, whenever I see a Krispy Kreme, I think of Krsuty Burgers from The Simpsons.  |

As a founding member of the Coalition Against Fat Asses I find the expansion of Krispy Kreme into Korea highly offensive. I call on all members of CAFA to form a picket line outside all Krispy Kreme Donut stores. |
