From K-Pop to K-Food: How Mr. Yoon Became a Melbourne Must-Try Destination!

Marketing Consultation and Brand Discovery

When new management took over modern Korean restaurant Mr. Yoon in late 2024, our first step was conducting an in-depth brand consultation. Through analyzing their unique Korean culinary heritage and extensive modern menu – featuring everything from traditional bulgogi and bibimbap to fusion Korean-Mexican tacos and Instagram-worthy Korean corn dogs – we identified their potential to become a standout destination at 34 Montclair Ave, Glen Waverley Victoria’s diverse food scene.
