Great news for K-pop fans and foodies alike. The rise of K-fandom and global culinary culture is taking over the American fast-casual dining scene with an exciting new partnership. bb.q Chicken, celebrated as Korea’s Finest Fried Chicken has officially launched its highly anticipated new menu item, Feel Crunch Chicken. This major release celebrates the brand’s dynamic new partnership with Felix, a beloved member of the global K-pop sensation Stray Kids. The nationwide rollout follows a highly successful soft launch that took place at select company-operated locations across the United States beginning on July 7.
Feel Crunch Chicken: A One-of-a-Kind Taste and Texture Profile
Feel Crunch Chicken delivers a unique profile crafted for anyone obsessed with authentic Korean flavors. The new recipe features a premium, sweet-and-savory caramelized onion sauce that coats the chicken perfectly before being topped with a layer of golden crunchy flakes. The result is a perfect balance of deep umami, sweet undertones, and a satisfying, signature crunch.
The partnership is a natural match. Felix has long been a vocal fan of the brand’s menu items, frequently raving to his global audience about his personal favorites, including the ultra-crispy Crunch Butter Chicken and the iconic sweet-and-savory Jamaica Sotteok Manna Chicken.
Expressing the brand’s enthusiasm, a bb.q Chicken U.S. spokesperson shared:
“As global interest in Korean culture continues to grow beyond streaming screens and onto fast casual menus across the country, bb.q Chicken wanted to find an opportunity to celebrate its authentic space in both,”
The spokesperson added:
“Felix has a genuine obsession with bb.q Chicken which makes him the perfect fit for this brand ambassador role.”
Because of his firsthand knowledge of the menu, Felix’s involvement went deep into the development process. The spokesperson further revealed:
“Feel Crunch was actually handpicked by Felix himself, and it highlights different elements of his favorite bb.q Chicken flavors. We’re excited for his fans, and other bb.q Chicken fans, to taste it for themselves.”
