Confessions of an Expat in Korea

Pack Mules & Panicked Delivery Drivers - Convenience Culture in Korea


Listen Later

If you've heard anything about Korea, you have probably heard a little bit about the convenience available here. Well what you heard is correct, because Korea has its own unique culture surrounding convenience. Naturally, every city differs, but anywhere located near Seoul or another large city will have some, if not all of these aspects.

From delivering meals and groceries, to multiple offerings around the block, guest speaker, Javee, and I only touch on a fraction of the convenience scene that is ever present here in South Korea.  We also discuss Javee's own unique experience of choosing to come to Korea and explore his "why" for choosing this interesting country.
