McDonald’s Korea’s burger board, translated: from the ₩3,800 (~$2.82) Bulgogi Burger that raised a generation to the 1955 Burger most of the world doesn’t know exists, plus a shrimp-and-beef double-decker, a mozzarella-loaded McChicken, and the Taste of Korea program currently serving Jinju pepper cream cheese burgers. Prices reflect the March 2026 revision; sets add roughly ₩1,700-2,300 (~$1.26-$1.71). One date for the calendar: gochujang butter McCrispy and McSpicy burgers arrive September 17.
Korea’s menu is smaller than Japan’s but sharper-elbowed: heavier on chicken and spice, prouder of its local program, and priced for a country where the value-menu politics make the evening news. This page is checked against McDonald’s Korea’s own menu (which, notably, publishes calories but not prices; prices here are from the chain’s March 2026 revision and can vary slightly by store and channel).

Checked September 10, 2026. Taste of Korea items rotate; the Jinju pepper pair is the current run.
Taste of Korea: the current run
The chain’s regional-ingredient program, one of its best ideas anywhere: a Korean province’s specialty becomes a limited burger once or twice a year. Now serving Jinju’s heirloom pepper; the full program history has every run back to the 2021 garlic original.

Reading the Korean menu
Three system notes: prices aren’t posted online (the chain publishes calories instead; the numbers above are from the March 2026 revision and kiosks are authoritative); the Happy Snack value menu sells select items cheaper (the ₩2,500, ~$1.85 Bulgogi is its star); and McLunch discounts sets on weekdays 10:30-14:00, which is when half of office Korea eats here. The wider context (the worldwide exclusives table, Japan’s board for comparison) shows how distinct Korea’s chicken-and-spice profile is.
FAQ
How much is a Big Mac in Korea?
₩5,700 (~$4.23) for the burger, ₩7,600 (~$5.64) as a set, after the February 2026 price rise. The Bulgogi Burger at ₩3,800 (~$2.82) (₩2,500, ~$1.85 on the value menu) remains the famous cheap order.
What burgers does McDonald’s Korea have that others don’t?
The 1955 Burger, Bacon Tomato Deluxe, the Bulgogi pair, the shrimp Shu-Bee and Shu-Shu, McChicken Mozzarella, and whatever the Taste of Korea program is running (currently Jinju pepper cream cheese). Chicken and shrimp depth is the Korean signature.

A recurring program pairing McDonald’s with a Korean region’s ingredient: past runs used Changnyeong garlic and Jindo green onion; the current one uses Jinju peppers, and a gochujang butter line arrives September 17. Runs are limited and sell through.

McMorning runs 04:00-10:30 daily, with the muffin lineup, hotcakes and Korea’s own chicken muffin and Shanghai snack wrap.
