If there is one thing that makes a Korean BBQ buffet even more enjoyable, it is having a bigger group of friends around the table. This October, diners looking for a reason to get together can make their next Korean BBQ outing a little more rewarding with the 4PLUS1 promotion at I’m Kim Korean BBQ.
Running from 1 to 31 October 2026, the promotion gives diners a chance to enjoy a KBBQ buffet where one diner eats free for every four full-paying diners. In simple terms, gather four friends, family members or colleagues who are paying for their buffet, and the fifth diner can enjoy the buffet free, subject to the promotion’s terms and conditions.
It is the sort of deal that makes group dining more tempting, especially when everyone is already planning a meal together. Rather than waiting for a special occasion, October could be a good opportunity to organise a casual Korean BBQ session and make the most of this limited-time offer.
How Does the 4PLUS1 Promotion Work?
The basic idea is straightforward. For every four full-paying diners, one additional diner can dine free. The free diner must be the lowest-paying diner in the group.
For example, if five adults are dining together, four adults will pay and one adult can dine free. If the group consists of four adults and one student or child, the student or child can be the complimentary diner, provided the relevant requirements are met.
That makes this promotion particularly interesting for groups with different types of diners. Families, groups of friends and colleagues can consider putting together a group meal and checking whether their party qualifies before making the booking.
However, this is not a walk-in-and-claim-anytime offer. There are specific booking requirements that diners need to follow, so it is worth taking a few minutes to understand the rules before heading to the restaurant.
Booking Is Required to Enjoy the Deal
One of the most important conditions is that the promotion is only applicable when the reservation is made through the restaurant’s website.
When making the booking, diners need to enter the promo code “4PLUS1” in the Reservation Note. Once the reservation has been verified by the restaurant staff, the promotional pricing will be reflected on the bill chit.
Diners can make their reservation through the official booking page here:

For reservations or enquiries, they can also contact I’m Kim Korean BBQ at 6238 7218.
Another important step is to tell the host that the group is using the promotion before entering the restaurant. This is an easy detail to overlook, so it is better to mention it as soon as the group arrives.
There Is Also a Social Media Requirement
The promotion comes with another condition that is easy to miss. All guests must follow I’m Kim Korean BBQ on Facebook or Instagram in order to enjoy the 4PLUS1 offer.
So, if the group is planning to use the promotion, it would be sensible for everyone to make sure they have followed the restaurant’s social media accounts before dining. This can help avoid any confusion when the bill is being prepared.
For group dining promotions like this, checking the requirements beforehand is always worthwhile. A few simple steps before arriving can make the experience much smoother once everyone is seated.
Why This Could Be a Good October Gathering
The biggest attraction of this promotion is the group format. Korean BBQ is already a social dining experience, with everyone sitting around the table, cooking food and sharing the meal. Having a fifth diner included without an additional buffet charge can make the occasion more appealing when the group qualifies.
It can also be a fun excuse to reconnect with friends who have not met up for a while. Instead of simply arranging another coffee or ordinary dinner, a Korean BBQ buffet gives everyone something to do while they catch up.
For colleagues, it could also work as an informal team meal. Families may find the offer useful too, particularly when there are enough diners to meet the four-paying-diners requirement.
The promotion is also running throughout the entire month of October rather than being limited to just a few days. That gives diners some flexibility when arranging a suitable date for the group.
Remember the 90-Minute Dining Limit
There is one practical point that groups should keep in mind: the promotion comes with a 90-minute dining time limit.
Guests are required to leave by the stipulated time in order to enjoy the promotion. This means diners should arrive on time and make the most of their allocated dining period.
For a Korean BBQ buffet, 90 minutes can pass surprisingly quickly, especially when everyone is chatting and enjoying the meal. Arriving late could therefore reduce the amount of time available for the group to enjoy the buffet.
Planning ahead is particularly useful for larger groups. If everyone knows the meeting time and arrives promptly, there should be less time spent waiting around before the meal begins.
Important Conditions Before You Book
As with most group dining promotions, there are several restrictions attached to the 4PLUS1 deal.
The promotion cannot be combined with other promotions, vouchers or discounts. Bill splitting is also not allowed, so the group should be prepared to settle the qualifying bill according to the restaurant’s requirements.
There must be a minimum of four paying diners for the offer to apply. The promotion is also not applicable for Gebiz.
For the student or child example, a valid student card must be presented upon entry if the student is the complimentary diner. This is particularly important for groups planning to use the promotion with a student member.
It is also worth remembering that the free diner must always be the lowest-paying diner in the group. This means diners should not assume that any member of the party can automatically be selected as the complimentary guest.
Why Should You Go and Enjoy This Deal?
If a group of four people is already thinking about having Korean BBQ, inviting one more person could make this promotion particularly interesting. Instead of treating the fifth person as an extra expense, the qualifying group can potentially have that diner enjoy the buffet free.
Beyond the saving itself, there is something enjoyable about turning a normal meal into a proper group gathering. Korean BBQ is naturally suited to sharing, conversation and spending time around the table, making it a good choice for a catch-up with friends, a family meal or a casual outing with colleagues.
The offer is available for the whole of October, so there is plenty of opportunity to find a date that works for everyone. Just remember to book through the required website, enter 4PLUS1 in the Reservation Note, make sure everyone follows the restaurant’s social media accounts and inform the host before entering.
For anyone planning a Korean BBQ buffet with a group this October, the I’m Kim Korean BBQ 4PLUS1 promotion is certainly one to keep in mind. Gather the group, make the reservation properly and be ready to enjoy the meal within the 90-minute dining period.
