The Dangerous Convenience Store Vol. 05
THE LONG GOODBYE
It’s been three years since Eui-joon last saw Gunwoo and there have been a lot of changes. Eui-joon no longer works his punishing graveyard shift at the convenience store, but instead works in sales at a small company where, as the newest employee, he’s constantly running errands for his boss. He’s even dating again, having found someone who reminds him of Gunwoo, but without all the hang-ups. The days of his whirlwind romance with Gunwoo are far behind him, until he receives a call from an unknown number. What will happen to Eui-joon’s new normal if Gunwoo suddenly shows back up in his life?
Series Overview: College student Yeo Eui-joon works the graveyard shift at a convenience store to pay his bills. The shift sucks, but the money’s good, and the customers—mostly mobsters and hoodlums—don’t cause too much trouble. That might be due to Gunwoo, a tall, hunky gangster who frequents the store for booze and cigarettes. He’s scarier than the rest of the clientele, but seems to have a soft spot for Eui-joon, defending him from the more volatile customers. Could there be more behind Gunwoo’s protective actions? And if so, is Eui-joon prepared to be a part of Gunwoo’s violent world?
