[Update on Dec. 29, 2:15pm:] The operating hours of emart24 will be from 9am to 11pm, daily, due to the "current manpower allocation", an emart24 spokesperson said on Dec. 29.

The convenience store added that it is looking at operating the store 24/7 once they have "ironed out the manpower". The article has been edited accordingly.

South Korean convenience store chain emart24 will be opening two stores in Singapore this month.

The first, located at Jurong Point, will open on Dec. 23.

The second, located at NEX, will open on Dec. 24.

Gastro bar with Korean street food

Apart from the typical convenience store offerings, emart24 outlets will also feature a grab-and-go gastro bar stocked with Korean street food and banchan (side dishes).

Some of the food options you can expect to find are:

  • Honey soy dak gang jung (boneless fried chicken)
  • Yang nyum (sweet and spicy) fried chicken
  • Gimbap (Korean seaweed rice rolls)
  • Dosirak (Korean lunchbox)
  • Tteokbokki (Korean Rice Cakes)

They will also be carrying items from emart24's house brand, I'm E, along with Korean snack food label No Brand.
