Sure, Kentucky Fried Chicken might have the United States at its core. But, South Korean locations of the chicken chain are filled with forbidden fruit that only appears on the American menu in my fast-food filled dreams. Over my last 10 days in Seoul, I have visited KFC three times.

Oh yeah! It made my monthly trip to the big city worth it for almost two years guiltypleasure
