Bonchon Philippines’ commitment to Korean flavors and innovation was recently recognized when it was awarded the prestigious title of Most Influential Brand in the KOREAN RESTAURANT Category by InfluentialBrands®.

Leveraging on more than 20 years of business knowledge, know-how and expertise in Asia, InfluentialBrands® is the premier Catalyst of Growth that celebrates “Champions of Excellence” in Asia. This accolade highlights how Bonchon Philippines has helped popularize the now-beloved Korean fried chicken and other Korean-inspired dishes in the country.

Reaching Philippine shores in 2010, Bonchon Philippines quickly became a favorite among Filipinos by introducing founder Jinduk Seo's passion for Korean comfort food that led him to craft the ultimate crispy, tender, and flavorful Korean Fried Chicken.
