What is the required action regarding the hours of operation for a Bonchon restaurant?

According to Bonchon's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must operate their Bonchon business during the days and hours specified in the Bonchon manuals. Any deviation from these specified hours requires prior written approval from Bonchon.

Failure to adhere to the prescribed operating hours without Bonchon's written consent constitutes a breach of the franchise agreement. This requirement ensures consistency across all Bonchon locations, maintaining brand standards and customer expectations.

This provision is important for prospective franchisees to consider, as it limits their flexibility in setting operating hours and requires them to seek approval for any changes. Franchisees should discuss typical operating hours and the process for requesting changes with Bonchon before signing the franchise agreement.
