The Dangerous Convenience Store #1

The Dangerous Convenience Store Vol. 1

Rate this book
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?

***Goodreads is just too slow to update the volumes***

Loved the first season.

Waiting for the second season to start.

There's plot.

There's character development.

One is hot. One is fluffy.

They look good together.

Helpless convenience storekeeper getting attacked and bullied all the time.

And the other strong gang guy is just there for him.

The artstyle wows.

Oh my God. That Ah-juicyyyy. LMAO. I freaking love this. The conversation with them is so funny too. Like that "I've already devoured a man when I never thought I would. There's nothing I can't eat." LMAO. I was LOL so hard while I was reading this manhwa. So funny and the sexy scene. oh Lord. That Seme is big. Uhm. Yeah.

I enjoyed The Dangerous Convenience Store Vol. 1 but I think if there was more of a slow burn between Eui-joon and Gunwoo I would have loved it. Their first meeting and interactions were great, but I would have liked a build up rather that straight up banging.

I wanted more of a focus on Eui-joon and Gunwoo, and not that douche Eui-Joon was crushing on in the beginning. But we'll get that in future volumes so I can't wait to see their romance develop in the next volume.

Aso that scene was really cute!

why just WHY have i put this off for so long!?

ahjuicyyyyyy what a MAN oh my godddd 😍🫠🦋💘

it's been a while since a manhwa captured my attention from the start, i was immediately hooked!! i'm picky as hell with manhwa and it's so hard for me to find ones i end up loving, so to say i'm excited for the rest of this series is an understatment. i'm already fully invested in this couple 🥰

the volume had everything. great chemistry, interesting characters and storyline. the storyline is simplistic (so far) but it's enough to still keep my attention. it was also so funny, their interactions and the art had me cackling a few times. there was some pretty cute and swoony moments too. ngl gunwoo had me blushing immediately 😭 i just love how he's kinda of an asshole but a lovable one imo. i adore eui joon, he needs to be protected at all costs.

such a promising volume and i can't wait to read more. no complaints whatsoever!!!

General Comment: This is my favorite manhwa of all time. It is captivating and interesting, most of all entertaining to read that I cannot put my phone down when I started it. I blew through it in one sitting cuz I truly enjoyed the story and it made me feel things although this is more of a character-centered rather than plot-centered. Still, I enjoyed it. The characters are adorable and wholesome, they got great chemistry. I love how the author/artist portrayed their relationship and the development process between the two main characters. Truly, I got nothing to say rather than hands down chef's kisses!

I just got back into my bl manhwa reading era and had to reread this!!
I don’t think I will write reviews for each one but i have to say I love this so much.
I just love the dynamic between Eui and Bum (him with his big dick energy LAMO) they coudnt have been more different!
It so funny, spicy and wholesome at the same time and just can’t wait to dig my way through the rest of it again 🤭💓

3.5 stars! i’ve finally found a manhwa that has peaked my interests! i was really pleasantly surprised with this one. i’m kind of kicking myself as i’ve walked past this so many times at barnes and just now randomly decided to pick it up after months of spotting it in stores. i’m interested to see what comes from eui-joon and gun-woo’s relationship. the spice is there, the fluffiness is there, and now all i need is romance. i’m not buying gun-woo’s nonchalance for one second; he’s for sure a romantic!!

The Dangerous Convenience Store is a spicy, fun romance manhwa about a convenience store cashier (who also is a college student) and a grumpy mafia boss. They meet while the mafia boss goes to buy some alcohol and cigarettes. He gets super intrigued by this guy and while he is a man of few words, he finds himself asking him about his day and what's happening in his life.

I mean... I do love me a grumpy guy who basically hates everyone or like doesn't care about anyone else but the main character. Also Gunwoo is so hot and he has scars and the whole thing. I wanted to keep reading to see how these two's relationship will bloom and I wasn't disappointed.

While Gunwoo is annoyed by anything, on the other hand we have Eui-joon who is smiles and niceness and cuteness all around. He has a huge crush on this guy at his university but he's afraid he'll mess up their relationship if he confesses. But one day, soon after returning from summer holidays, he does tell him and... things don't go as planned.

The classmate SUCKS. You'll hate him immediately. But that plot helps move along the romantic relationship between Gunwoo and Eui-joon, especially when Gunwoo is there for him when he needs to vent and tell someone about what's going on with this guy. And when Eui-joon mentions that he just wants a guy who gives him good dick and is handsome as well, Gunwoo literally volunteers lmao. GET READY FOR SOME STEAMY, SPICY SCENES *oof*

I'm excited to see how this continues!!! I love both characters and I can't wait to know what's next between them <3

This was so good!!! The smut scene was very mature, but also really well done. Already laughed 20 pages in. Really lucky that I got vol 2, so off to read it!

Kind of a typical set up but I really like these two characters! There's also quite a bit more potential for plot with these two.

But also the smut is A+++ and the tropes are perfect so

20 stars/10

I’m so serious I was so stressed and in a bad mood all day, and I opened this absentmindedly cause I don’t have the brain/attention span for any novels rn, and I feel SM BETTER. I was laughing, I’m all giddy, I feel FINE. It’s like my mood switched, and it’s pretty rare for some books to do that in like five minutes.

I loved this! A cheery talks-too-much sweetheart of a cinnamon roll and a grumpy mafia boss older man who just happens to be his next door neighbor!

It's fast paced, and things are definitely kinda summarized and happen off page, but I really enjoy this. I hope we'll learn more about Gunwoo!

I really enjoyed this and can't wait for more.

read all chapters and side stories
it's really cute and I had so much fun reading it, I was not a fan of the art style tho and I wish there was more plot, not just them smooching and being dramatic

I did not expect this manga to be as spicy as it was (and explicit as hell also lol).

As someone who is in a severe reading slump currently, it feels nice to finally have finished something after such a long tome to be honest.

The Dangerous Convenience Store was a great manga from my perspective. Super hot and spicy boys love and super enjoyable as well.

I am directly gonna read the second installment!
