Production An existing convenience store in Toronto, Mimi 's Convenience Store, at 252 Queen Street East, was redesigned to stand in for exterior shots in the show. Shooting locations Interior scenes at the store, Handy Car Rental and home are shot at Showline Studios at 901 Lake Shore Boulevard East, where an exact replica of Mimi Variety, the model for the store, has been recreated. The studio is also used as the exterior of the car rental business. One episode was shot in Koreatown at Bloor and Christie Streets. The long established `` Mimi Variety '' store at 252 Queen Street East is used for exterior shots and as the model for the interior set built in the studio. While the signage has been adjusted, the `` Kim 's Convenience '' sign uses the same red and green lettering and all other sections, such as the `` 7 DAYS A WEEK '', are the original signage of Mimi Variety. The producers also painted a mural on an exterior wall, mostly seen in the credit sequence and for stock transitional shots as well as for promotional shots. The owners of the store have retained the new signage although the business has not officially changed its name. Episodes Originally set to premiere on October 4, 2016, on CBC, the series premiere was delayed to October 11, 2016, with back - to - back episodes, so it would not conflict with the Toronto Blue Jays ' American League Wild Card Game. The first season consists of 13 half - hour episodes. CBC announced on December 20, 2016, that it had renewed Kim 's Convenience for a second season of 13 episodes. Season 2 premiered on September 26, 2017.

DVD releases Entertainment One released the first season of Kim 's Convenience on Region 1 DVD on March 7, 2017. Season Episodes Release Date Region 1 13 March 7, 2017 13 March 6, 2018 Reception Critical response The show has received mostly positive reviews. John Doyle of The Globe and Mail wrote that the show `` stays away from the pseudo-seriousness that could easily plague a comedy about immigrants and family dynamics. '' In conclusion, Doyle called it `` a clever, generally engaging screwball comedy with an eye on entertainment ''. The Toronto Star 's Tony Wong wrote that `` the show is good. Possibly even great. The dialogue is sharp, on point and borderline subversive. It has the potential to be a future classic. It has bite... It 's funny and true, but not a reality we typically see reflected on television. '' Rick Salutin, also of the Star, was less enthusiastic of the show 's portrayal of minorities on television saying `` only accents are funny in Kim 's Convenience '' and that audiences are `` laughing at the characters not with them ''. Salutin concluded by stating `` I do n't see why supporting Canadian culture means you should be uncritical, as if someone will take it away if you were n't. You should be most critical about what you care most about like public education or the CBC, you want them to be good not just there ''. Ratings Midway through its first season, Kim 's Convenience was estimated by Numeris to have an average audience of 933,000 per episode, with 39 % of viewers between the ages of 25 and 54.
