The Last Chance Convenience Store

The much anticipated sequel to the million-copy international bestselling debut The Second Chance Convenience Store. After captivating millions of readers worldwide, The Second Chance Convenience Store is back with a delightful sequel that’s just as moving and full of heart as the original. In The Last Chance Convenience Store, Ho-yeon Kim invites us once again into the comforting glow of a neighborhood store where laughter, struggles, and second chances converge into one poignant tale. A year-and-a-half has passed. The world has changed—and so has the Always convenience store in Cheongpa-dong. Now under the mask-wearing reality of a pandemic, the store is run by Seon-suk, a once-frustrated mother turned steady manager, and Min-sik, a reluctant leader more concerned with profits than people. But when a new night worker arrives—Hwang Geun-bae, a clumsy yet endearing man in his forties who prefers to go by the name “Hong Sam-bo”—the convenience store begins to transform once again.
