Korean coffee chain Twosome Place announced plans to enter the U.S. market next month, beginning its first overseas expansion in October. The company will open its inaugural overseas location in Alexandria, Virginia, with further openings planned for the DMV region, comprising Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia.
