Korean convenience stores are renowned for their vast array of desserts, snacks, and drinks, offering a comprehensive shopping experience. Here are five essential hacks for anyone visiting:
1. T-money cards: Beyond snacks, these stores sell T-money cards, which are useful for public transportation and even food purchases. Look out for special editions, like BTS-themed designs.
2. Trash bags: Navigating Korea's meticulous trash system can be daunting. Convenience stores sell trash bags in various sizes to ease this process.
3. Sweet treats: For an unusual and delightful dessert, combine a bbangbbare (Korean chocolate) ice cream sundae with kancho or chocolate mushrooms.
4. Late-night discounts: Visiting later in the evening can lead to discounts on items like triangle kimbap, as stores aim to sell fresh food daily.
5. Unique dishes: Try the cheesy spaghetti with rice cakes for a novel twist on a classic dish, adding a unique texture with the chewiness of rice cakes.
