Convenience Store Junkies (2022)

Other name: 편의점 고인물, Pyeoneuijeom Goinmul

Description:

Convenience Store Junkies is an intriguing convenience store drama that delves into the everyday challenges and unique perspectives found in a familiar retail setting. The story primarily follows Ha Ru, a veteran part-timer who has amassed an impressive nine years of customer service experience. Despite her extensive knowledge of store operations and customer quirks, Ha Ru firmly believes that working part-time is far superior to the demanding role of a store manager.

The plot unfolds as various newbie store managers are assigned, each lacking the practical wisdom and hands-on experience that Ha Ru possesses. This creates a compelling dynamic where Ha Ru, with her seasoned understanding, often finds herself discreetly correcting or navigating the inexperience of her new bosses. This series humorously yet thoughtfully explores workplace hierarchies, the value of front-line experience, and the subtle power shifts within a seemingly simple convenience store environment, proving that experience sometimes outshines a title.
