Effective family tearjerker

See it if First generation Korean daughter in Toronto does not want to take over her father's store. Funny. Ending in a tear-inducing scene

Don't see it if you don't want your heartstrings tugged. Excellent comedic performances. The actor who plays the son is also the playwright
