Actress Han Ga-in Takes on Convenience Store Job After 30 Years

Actress Han Ga-in recently ventured into a convenience store for a part-time job, marking her first such experience in 30 years.

On October 28, Han Ga-in's YouTube channel, 'Free Woman Han Ga-in,' featured a video titled 'What Happens When the Stunning Han Ga-in Works at a Convenience Store (First Look at My Nephew, Latest Convenience Store Hacks).' The video quickly gained attention.

Han Ga-in shared, "I debuted early and didn't have many chances to do part-time jobs. The last time I worked was delivering udon at a noodle shop in middle school, and now, 30 years later, I'm back at it." She started the convenience store job alongside her 20-year-old nephew.

Watching her nephew, who has four months of experience in the role, Han Ga-in expressed, "I feel reassured." As she learned tasks like operating the cash register and stocking shelves, she commented, "Everything is new to me since it's my first time in a convenience store." After working for two hours, she humorously noted, "I earned 20,060 won. I don't think I can spend it because it feels too precious."

With her earnings, Han Ga-in bought drinks and ramen from the store and enjoyed a meal with her nephew. She asked him, "How many days a week do you work?" to which he replied, "I work twice a week and earn 320,000 won." Han Ga-in praised him, saying, "I heard you bought something nice for grandma last month. That's so kind."

Han Ga-in made her debut in the 2002 drama 'Sunshine Hunting.' She married fellow actor Yeon Jung-hoon in 2005, and they have a son and a daughter together.
