It's lips licking good!

What do Samsung, Wonder Girls, and BonChon have in common? Besides they are native Korean subjects, and, like most Korean products, they aggressively invaded into every corner of America with no mercy. And BonChon, the fried chicken that "it isn't merely today's best chicken; it's perfect, the best fried chicken that I've ever had", landed in Bangkok.
