Oh so convenient
6. CONVENIENCE STORES
The concept of ‘convenience’ takes on a whole other layer here. These stores are also on virtually every block and are mostly open 24 hours. They usually only accept cash (which is actually true for most types of stores). They are small and a little pricey, but very convenient, carrying items like snacks, wrapped sandwiches, basic toiletries, juice, water, beer and soju, a few fruits, maybe some wine. Very helpful to visitors, as we could just pick out what we wanted from the shelves and check the cash register for the amount needed!
Some of the chain names we noticed are:
Dream Mart, Family Mart, Buy the Way, 7-Eleven, GS25, OK Mart, H Plus Mart.
