When me and my friends talk about koreans, few things always pops in mind, one is Kimchi, two, Koreanovelas, and three, Song Hye-kyo who is a South Korean actress who gained popularity through television dramas such as Autumn in My Heart, All In, and Full House. I only knew a few foods that are Koreans and mostly as i was told, Koreans do love to eat vegetables. It didn’t actually came into my mind that , like Filipinos, Koreans also do have a fondness over Chickens!
After the popularity of Bon Chon, comes another brand to challenge the Filipino palette, Smoper Chicken, a south Korean base fast-food chain which at the moment have an existing 800 branches in South Korea alone. Koreans do love their chicken that diners flock to their restaurants and willing to spend more minutes just to wait for a seat to be available.

Mixed of crowd from office workers to even condo dwellers steadily have been attracted to Smoper Chickens offering, making its management to instantly open another branch to be located in Quezon City.
