Yonhap recently reported that as the price of fried chicken in South Korea continues to rise, many fried chicken chain brands have increased their prices one after another, and the term “fried chicken inflation” is trending on Korean social media platforms. Many consumers lamented, “Is fried chicken still a civilian food?” According to reports, the takeout price for a single portion of major Korean fried chicken chain brands is approaching 30,000 won. Take Seoul's Dongjak-gu district as an example. The famous brand Gyomon Fried Chicken sells for about 25,000 won per serving, and BBQ Golden Olive Fried Chicken is about 23,000 won. With delivery fees ranging from 2,000 to 5,000 won, a fried chicken takeout can be up to 30,000 won. Famous Korean fried chicken brands have been adjusting their prices one after another since April of this year. Zicoba fried chicken raised all fried chicken meals by 2,500 won, and some Seoul franchisees of Gyomon fried chicken also adjusted about 2,000 won last month through takeout platforms.
