  3. Kim's Convenience


Kim's Convenience, penned by Ins Choi, explores the life of Mr. Kim, a Korean immigrant running a convenience store in Toronto. As development encroaches on his business, he faces a choice between accepting a lucrative offer for his property or encouraging his daughter to take over the family store. The show promises humor and heart as it delves into family dynamics and community ties. Directed by Andrew Ruthven, the cast includes Johnny Barton, Minsook Kim, Sethe Nguyen, Kory Laquess Pullam, and Jack Stansbury.
