About the brand
bhc Chicken is a South Korean fried chicken franchise founded in 2004 and operated by Dining Brands Group from Seoul. Known for flavored chicken lines such as Bburinkle, it counts about 2,177 stores in Korea and roughly 2,223 worldwide across nine markets including the US, Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Overseas growth relies on master-franchise agreements — with Taiwan's Hutong Group and, for Vietnam, Hao Open Foods — alongside single- and multi-unit franchising in the United States.
