In the March 2010 issue of Saveur magazine, there is an article on Korean fried chicken. The author quotes his favorite locatioins for Korean fried chicken are the 6 Kyochon locations in LA area.

Nineteen years ago in a small shop in Gumi, South Korea, a restaurant owner named Kwon Won King added his own savory garlic-soy dressing to double fried wings & drumsticks, and the specialty known as yangnyeom dak took off as a fast-food phenomenon
