Running a family business is no easy feat, especially when your customers aren’t the only ones needing management. Mr. Kim, or “Appa,” runs his Toronto convenience store with a mix of old-school wisdom and quick wit, while his wife, “Umma,” keeps the family grounded with her unwavering faith and heart. Their kids, Janet and Jung, are caught between traditional expectations and their own dreams, leading to hilarious misunderstandings and heartfelt moments.
Behind the counter lies a deeper story: the push and pull of generations, the clashing of cultures, and the love that keeps them together despite their differences. Kim’s Convenience is a reminder that every family has its quirks, but at the end of the day, laughter—and a little compromise—can get you through anything.
