Soy Garlic Fried Chicken (Soy Garlic Chikin)

KRW16000.00

Double-fried chicken coated in a soy-garlic sauce for a savory, less spicy option.

Tip: Order both gochujang and soy garlic — the contrast shows the skill of Han Chu's kitchen. One version is spicy, one is savory.

Whole Fried Chicken

KRW15000.00

A whole bird cut into pieces with an ultra-crispy, shattered crust.

Tip: Order a serving of alcohol (soju or draft beer) and a soft drink per person alongside your chicken—it's required and keeps the meal going past midnight.

Double-Fried Chicken (Yangnyum Chikin)

KRW16000.00

Crispy fried chicken coated in gochujang (Korean red chili paste) and chili flakes.

Tip: Order this with a cold beer — the spicy, crispy chicken and cold beer combination is peak chimaek culture. That's why everyone comes here.
