Taron Egerton professed his love for Korean fried chicken paired with beer.

“I’ve tried Korean fried chicken with beer and it is absolutely the best,” he told reporters at a press conference at CGV Yongsan Thursday.

Egerton, Colin Firth and Mark Strong are in Korea to promote “Kingsman 2: The Golden Circle.”

“And trust me, I know fried chicken,” Egerton said.

“It’s my second trip to Korean and I’m sure there’ll be many more,” he added
