Starbucks Korea has debuted two self-order kiosks at its Myeong-dong branch in central Seoul.

Customers can now order using the kiosks or the counter and the kiosks are available in English, Korean, Chinese and Japanese, according to a Korea Bizwire report. The kiosks are not as high as standard models and are mounted on tables for wheelchair accessibility.

The two kiosks are a pilot program that Starbucks expects to expand to 20 high-traffic locations.
