Column: A Randy’s Donuts in Seoul adds Los Angeles flavor to South Korea

LA Times  

Sometimes you leave Los Angeles only to find that it has arrived at your destination long before you. A few years ago on a trip to Tokyo I encountered downtown Los Angeles’ Pie Hole in the basement of a train station on my way to try Afuri Ramen, a yuzu ramen specialist. Randy’s Donuts in Seoul features the sloped tile rooftops found on hanoks, traditional Korean homes. There are now five Randy’s Donuts locations in Korea, the first of which opened in August 2019 on Jeju Island, a popular Korean honeymoon destination. Randy’s doughnut has been featured in disaster movies, graced the cover of a J Dilla beat record and cameoed in “Iron Man 2.” The Randy’s Donut Korea website offers a simplified version.
