From Korea with Crunch How Goobne Chicken Became Malaysia’s Favourite Healthy Korean Feast


What if the crispiest Korean chicken you’ve ever bitten into wasn’t fried at all?
Meet Goobne Chicken Malaysia, the oven-roasted Korean chicken brand that’s changing the way Malaysians eat, crave, and talk about K-food. 🔥🍗

Malaysia Loves Fried Chicken. Goobne Changed the Rules.

Malaysia is obsessed with fried chicken.
Malaysia is also obsessed with K-dramas.

So, when Goobne Korea’s No.1 oven-roasted chicken chain landed here in 2018, it didn’t just enter the market.
It rewrote the game.

No deep-frying.
No added oil.
Just chicken roasted slowly in a special oven, letting its natural fats melt away.

The result?
👉 Crispy skin
👉 Juicy meat
👉 Way healthier than fried chicken

Most first-timers say the same thing:

“This tastes fried!”

And that’s exactly the magic.

The Man Powering Goobne Malaysia’s Rise

Behind Goobne Malaysia is Eugene, co-founder and the engine driving its daily operations. Alongside partners Mr. Lee and Mr. Adam, Eugene trained directly in Goobne Korea, studied their systems, toured factories, and brought the authentic oven-roasting technique straight to Malaysia.

Fun fact:
“Goobne” literally means “oven-roasted” in Korean.

“Most Korean chicken here is fried,” Eugene shares.
“We use no extra oil, just the chicken’s own natural juices. That’s why people are shocked after the first bite.”

Simple idea. Powerful execution.

100% Malaysian Crowd-Pleaser.

Goobne Malaysia is
✔️ No pork
✔️ No lard
✔️ No alcohol

Step into any outlet and you’ll see it:
Malay families, Chinese aunties, Indian foodies, Gen Z students, office crews  everyone eats together here.

And yes, the K-drama effect is real.

Thanks to hits like Business Proposal, where Goobne was literally the workplace of the main characters, even makciks and uncles walk in saying:

“I saw this chicken on Netflix.” 🍿🇰🇷
