I've been in Korea for 10 days and have already been to KFC 3 times. Here's what makes the chain so special in Korea when compared to the US.

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.I visited KFC in Seoul, South Korea and was blown away by the menu items that aren't available in the US.I kept finding myself returning to KFC while I was visiting Seoul, drawn by the cheap beer and seemingly endless array of menu items you can't get back in America.

Whether you like these or not is probably going to come down to if you like chicken gizzards and other somewhat gristly parts of the chicken. I thought they were tasty, especially fresh out of the fryer.
