Seoul Kyochon Chicken Half-Day Experience with DIY Session

Excellent experience! Chimaek (chicken and beer) is a must in Korea, and I got to enjoy it and at the same time learn about the history of Kyochon, one of the iconic Fried Chicken brands. The whole experience was led by a kind guide who was able to effectively communicate in English. He also conveyed the values of Kyochon because he was kind and authentic, and was also able to demonstrate with mastery when we reached the workshop. It was fascinating to see how Kyochon balances technology in the kitchen with the human touch. Their smart kitchens have robot arms to take care of the parts of the process that require precision, such as frying for a specific time. However, the core taste of the brand is still in the hands of people who carefully apply the sauces to the freshly fried chicken. Just by writing this, I am getting hungry again! Finally, I loved discovering more parts of Kyochon that I didn't know about: their award-winning beer was delicious, and I was lucky to try it there.

I would like to start by saying that the experience was super good, something totally different from what I would normally do when I travel to a new place, but that made it even more interesting. Seeing the facilities, being part of the process, & being able to witness firsthand a little bit of how everything works at Kyochon Chicken was amazing. I also loved being able to participate in the final stage of product preparation it was very fun. The instructor was very kind, he spoke English so all of us could understand, and he also encouraged us to participat in the demonstration. We also got to try the products, and they were DELICIOUS, the chicken, the beer, & the side dishes. The moment was very pleasant for the whole group, we had a wonderful time together, took photos, videos, & explored part of the building & I would definitely go again. I discovered this experience through social media, and it immediately caught my attention because I love Korean fried chicket 100% recommendable

I had such a fun and delicious time on the Kyochon Chicken tour! 🍗✨ It was exciting to visit a new location and experience Korea’s famous chicken culture from the inside. The hands-on part was simple - we only brushed the sauce onto the chicken 🎨🍗 but I completely understand that this is for safety reasons so guests don’t get hurt by hot oil 🔥😊 Even though the tour was more tasty than educational, I honestly enjoyed every moment. The atmosphere was super friendly, the staff were kind and helpful, and everything was organized really well 🤗💛 It felt light, fun, and perfect for anyone who wants to relax, laugh, and eat great food 😋✨ Overall, it was a delicious and memorable experience - definitely a 5star tour from me! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

The experience was great from start to finish! our guide, Jenny, was a really cool and calm person, so the vibe was positive during the whole trip. Once arrived, we were welcomed by Kyochon chicken staff, they took us onto a small tour and explained the experience very well. After that we went hands down to the cooking part in a neat cooking classrom. They teach their especial cooking techniques, how they make their sauces and showed us in a fun way how to add sauce after frying the chicken. Finally, the tasting section after the class was the best part of it, since we ate some of the chicken we prepared!! delicious!! There was extra time to take pictures and some videos too!!!Even the trip both ways was pretty good, since they promoted talking to other participants, so there's also a chance to make good friends. I totally recommend the tour!!!

Due to the rainy weather, the driver/tour guide was originally very helpful, even changing the location to conveniently pick up our family. He was chatty and funny along the way, and took many photos for us. However, on the return trip, even though we had clearly agreed on a drop-off point, he randomly dropped us off in Myeongdong, claiming that we had told him earlier that this was the location, and insisted that we hadn't clearly specified the drop-off point. The tour itself involved only a very simple introduction and a demonstration of applying sauce. The advertised fried chicken process was only explained using a PowerPoint presentation. However, the Kyochon company representative did his best to introduce his company.
