About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a truck full of fresh kimchi. As he unloaded crates in Koreana Plaza's back alley, he noticed an old man standing nearby, whispering something into his cell phone and pointing towards the sky. The driver shrugged it off, thinking maybe the old guy was just talking to himself. Later that day, while restocking shelves, another employee heard a familiar voice from above: ‘Hey, kid! Watch out for those jars!’ Turns out, the old man had been calling down instructions from his rooftop garden, helping everyone prepare for the weekend rush.
2. In Koreana Plaza’s produce section, a regular noticed something peculiar one afternoon. Among the neatly stacked boxes of imported fruit, he spotted an envelope tucked behind some bananas. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a crumpled note scribbled in Korean. With no clue what it said, he decided to leave it there. Only later did another shopper notice that same envelope had mysteriously reappeared on the lettuce display—with a new message reading: ‘Forgot to put this back last time.’
3. In Koreana Plaza's frozen food aisle, a small child pointed excitedly at something nobody else could see. The parent looked around, puzzled. As they turned back, they saw nothing but ordinary packages of kimchi and bulgogi. But just then, an elderly lady passing by whispered, ‘Oh, that’s probably little Sunny pointing at her favorite frozen mandu.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another day in Koreana Plaza—where imagination meets frozen goods.
4. In Koreana Plaza's meat department, a little dog suddenly started barking frantically at an empty shelf. As everyone gathered around, confused and amused, the little dog kept pointing its tiny paw at the empty spot on the shelf. Turns out, a delivery driver had accidentally left a package of sausages there earlier that morning. A regular customer noticed the commotion and joked, ‘Maybe the dog’s trying to tell us they’re out of hot dogs!’ Everyone laughed, and soon enough, someone went to check—and sure enough, no more sausages were left.
