About

You can stream Kim's Convenience (2016) on Peacock with a subscription.

The funny, heartfelt story of The Kims, a Korean-Canadian family, running a convenience store in downtown Toronto. Mr. and Mrs. Kim ('Appa' and 'Umma') immigrated to Toronto in the '80s to set up shop near Regent Park and had two kids, Jung and Janet who are now young adults. However, when Jung was 16, he and Appa had a major falling out involving a physical fight, stolen money and Jung leaving home. Father and son have been estranged since.

The cramped aisles of a Toronto corner store serve as the vibrant, chaotic stage for a family navigating the friction between immigrant traditions and Canadian life. Sharp, rhythmic banter turns everyday grocery disputes into a warm look at the generational tug-of-war within a single household.
