SEOUL, Feb 6 (Reuters) - South Korea's Dongwon
Industries Co Ltd  006040.KS  in a regulatory filing on Monday
said it is considering buying the local unit of U.S. fast-food
chain McDonald's Corp  MCD.N .
    The unit is wholly owned by its parent's U.S. headquarters.
    Last year, McDonald's Korea said it was seeking a new owner,
nearly six years after its first failed attempt.
