I tried the Green Tea McFlurry during my third visit to Korea, in January 2009. It was a regular menu item before being discontinued in 2010, around the same time they discontinued another local favourite, the Shrimp Burger.

Pumpkin Triangle Pie - Seoul, Korea - October 2011

Just in time for autumn, McDonald's Korea is promoting the limited-edition Pumpkin Pie, using a big banner on all its Korean store fronts.  McDonald's Korea often uses Triangle Pies for the promotional pies, but this is the first time they have had a Pumpkin filled one. It was small, and rather bland.  The Pumpkin filling was nothing like the promotional photos.  For the size, at 1200W, it was rather pricey.

Shanghai Spice Chicken Deluxe - Seoul Korea - September 2011

This is the 2nd Limited-Edition 'Deluxe' variations McDonald's Korea has had in 2011. It is the standard McDonald's Korea 'Shanghai Spice Chicken', but the 'Deluxe-ing' is to add bacon, a special mayo. and a slightly bigger bun.  The Deluxe edition costs 1,000-1,500W (depending on lunch or dinner) more than the standard.

Consumed on - 18 September 2025 (Written on 26 October 2025)
Price - 5,900KRW (~$5.50USD) - The promotion 4500W is only for lunch.
Location - McDonald's COEX
Rating - 4/5.  The standard Shanghai Spice already being a favourite of mine, I really enjoyed this Deluxe edition.  I don't think bacon and a bigger bun are worth the 1,500W premium during lunch time, but the 1,000W premium during dinner prices make it worth a try.
