I am nuts about Kim's Convenience. I really enjoy seeing the two different generations of Koreans/Korean-Canadians living in North America/Canada. Mr. Kim's relationship with his son is similar to mine—I totally understand his stubbornness and I get the son's reluctance to connect with him. I also like seeing the Asians from China, India, and Korea interact with each other. More than anything, I like not seeing the typical stereotypes I often see on many programs here in the States.

I was not as politically involved back then as I am now, so even tho I lived thru all that, I am playing catch up I guess one could say.

Someone who knows me well suggested I watch this, but it doesn't look like my cup of tea, though I might give it a try in July.
Thanks for the tips, everyone.
