Hyodo Chicken (Korean: 효도치킨; lit. filial chicken[1]) is a Korean fried chicken chain restaurant in Seoul, South Korea. It first opened on May 8, 2018, on Parents' Day in South Korea.[1]

The chain is operated by Michelin-starred chefs Min Goo Kang (강민구) and Chang Ho Shin (신창호).[2][1] Kang worked at the restaurant Mingles and Shin at the restaurant Joo Ok.[1][3] By 2021, the restaurant had three locations: in Naeja-dong, Nonhyeon-dong, and in Hannam-dong.[3] Several of the dishes served in the chain are novel, and incorporate tastes of various Korean banchan (side dishes).[4] The restaurant also reportedly serves noodles.[5]
