SINGAPORE - Media OutReach^[1] - 25 May 2021 - Next stop on 7-Eleven^[2]'s culinary tour around Asia is Korea – the land of K-pop, K-beauty and of course, K-food! Say annyeonghaseyo to 7-Eleven's range of new and tasty delights coming your way! Whether you're looking for a light bite, a grab-and-go snack or something heartier, 7-Eleven has you covered.

Enjoy a taste of Korea with these all-new and improved additions to our menu

The first of our brand-new dishes is a family favourite in every Korean household and a must-order at Korean restaurants. 7-SELECT Kimchi Jiggae (Usual Price $4.50) is a Korean stew with a spicy kick, featuring kimchi and tofu in a chicken broth. Made with a generous serving of gochujang sauce brought in specially from Korea, this hug in a bowl is the perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy flavours!

Another dish making its debut at 7-Eleven is 7-SELECT Korean Jajangmyeon (Usual Price $4). This popular and authentic dish boasts firm yet tender fresh egg noodles topped with chunjang – a black bean sauce imported from Korea – and fragrant spring onions for a salty yet slightly sweet taste.

If you're looking for something truly unique, try a 7-SELECT Kimchi Chicken & Omelette Sandwich (Usual Price $3.50), a first-of-its kind Korean-inspired sandwich that includes a crunchy kimchi filling made from pickled onions, cabbage and carrots combined with light and fluffy egg omelette. This ideal breakfast bite or afternoon snack tastes great warmed up or chilled.

We're also relaunching a popular item from our menu – if you liked our 7-SELECT Korean Spicy Rice Cakes (Tteok-bokki) (Usual Price $3.50) previously, you'll love the improved recipe. We've now added spicy gochujang sauce and rice cakes imported directly from Korea for an even more authentic flavour. The packaging has also been given an upgrade allowing customers to reheat the contents more evenly and conveniently. From 26 May – 22 June 2021, you can also enjoy $0.50 off when you buy it with any featured 7-SELECT Korean item!
