NeNe Chicken is one of the Korean fried chicken brands with a long history. Nene Chicken started its business in 1995. The brand has been in Korea for over 25 years and they have more than 1,000 locations across Korea.
Although more and more new fried chicken brands are born, NeNe Chicken has always been one of the most popular fried chicken brands today thanks to three outstanding brand features.
The first is the beautiful packaging. During that time, there was no other brand that packaged quite like NeNe. Their appearance reminds me of a pizza box, but when you open it, the chicken, side dishes and drinks are neatly arranged. Today, you may often see chicken packers like NeNe but 10 years ago this was a revolution in the chicken production and processing industry.
Another key to NeNe's success is choosing the right promoters. The fried chicken industry in Korea is famous for its use of celebrities. NeNe used Yoo Jae-seok- one of the leaders in the Korean entertainment industry as their model for 12 years. Last but not least, NeNe's fried chicken is delicious. They are famous for their Pa-dak (Chicken Onion) and Snowing Chicken (Chicken with Cheese).

Puradak Chicken is a brand of Korean fried chicken. Puradak Chicken is considered the best-fried chicken brand in Busan - the 2nd largest city in Korea.
One thing that distinguishes Puradak Chicken from many other fried chicken brands to make it more and more popular is that it is a combination of fried chicken and roasted chicken.
There is another reason that many Korean movie lovers or female friends will love it is that the brand representative is the handsome actor Jung Hae-in. Another interesting thing about this fried chicken brand is that the packaging is quite different from other fried chicken brands, that is, the packaging is very similar to a high-end fashion brand Prada.
When it comes to the Pudarak Chicken, the carbonara-style fried chicken is the brand's most popular dish. In addition, the General Hot Wings Combo is also one of the most popular combos.

Two Two Chicken is one of the very famous Korean chicken brands in Seoul as it has existed for more than 30 years. Two Two Chicken is known for its cooking technique with a special pressure fryer, dough and secret sauce. Furthermore, their chicken is a bit thinner than other brands but that's because their chicken is not factory raised. For those who like a chicken with thin skin, Two Two Chicken will surely make you love it. Compared to other fried chicken brands, Two Two is quite difficult to find as there are currently only over 100 branches in Korea.
It is estimated that the average Korean person will eat 12 chickens per year. If we add up, it is estimated that chicken consumption in Korea can be up to 600 million chickens per year. Therefore, the Korean fried chicken market is one of the leading development industries here.

Chicken Baengi is one of the Korean fried chicken brands with a classic style. This fried chicken brand usually makes classic chicken dishes like fried chicken with sauce but they also make pa dalk (chicken with scallions), boneless fried chicken thighs with ice cream with sweet peanut sauce, served with finely chopped leeks.

Baengi in the name of this fried chicken brand is Golbaengi, which means sea snail. A special thing about Chicken Baengi is that they think that the spicy and sour sea snail salad goes well with fried chicken, so this is one of the strange menus.

Last chicken brand but it is the highlight of today. After the nine fried chicken brands listed above, Goobne Chicken will be a quite new and different chicken brand in this list.
Recently, Goobne Chicken is becoming more and more popular because of its difference. This is one of my favorite grilled chicken brands. This is one of the reasons why Koreans are proud to say that Korean fried chicken is very healthy because it doesn't contain much fat.
Goobne Chicken promoted the brand's product as a healthy alternative to fried food. It will make you fall in love with the first bite and don't have to worry about the amount of grease in the brand's dishes.
