I read through all the reviews and was so confused. Yes it's totally hidden, but this store has it all! I actually walked from P2 to P1 via the parking garage because I was so confused and there it was, a whole basement to a store I've never seen and I've been to the galleria so many times! So happy I discovered this place and will be coming back to buy more kitchenware! They also take credit card!

Hidden Gem!…read more Literally hidden! I was so frustrated I wanted to leave but good thing I did not give up and Yes, good find. Compared to the "other" kitchen supply we went I think they are cheaper and I found a lot more here that I need! Staff are friendly, I only purchased 8 pcs of the container I need, asked for a little discount they said "if I remember it right" 12 pcs of anything you get, gives you 10% off. Parking is a lot. Staff are nice. TIP: They are located at the basement, I repeat basement! Inside wholesale store, do not make the same mistake like me on going inside the Galleria supermarket. I used the stairs going down from P1. uugh so confusing but I will be back now that I know the place.

When I returned to my car, I noticed that one of the cups had a scratch on it. I walked back inside and told one of the guys, who immediately exchanged the cup for me. No questions asked! The only downside is their parking lot. The lot only has enough space for 4-5 cars and there are pallets around the entire perimeter of the lot. Since there is only one way in and out, you need to reverse out of the lot and into traffic if there is no where for you to park. While doing this, you also need to make sure you don't hit any of their pallets. Luckily, one of the employees helped direct me.

On Labor Day, September 7th, I stopped by Kim's Home Center with my Mom…read more This is a very old and well-known shopping center that has been around for a very long time. They carry all kinds of useful everyday products, many of which are imported from Korea. The store has two floors and sells everything from clothing and underwear to household items, beauty products, and many other practical things. My Mom has probably been here dozens of times, maybe even more than 100 times, over the years, and I've also been here many times myself. But surprisingly, this is my first time ever writing a review for this place! We went there this time because I was looking for a sports bra. My Mom highly recommended this store because she said Korean underwear tends to fit Korean body types better and is more comfortable. One of the things I really liked was that you can actually try on bras in the fitting room before buying them. The employee was very kind and helpful. She explained the different sizes and helped me choose which sports bra would work best for me. After trying on a few options in the fitting room, I found a sports bra that fit me perfectly and was very comfortable. I ended up buying two of them, one black and one beige. My Mom also wanted to buy a pair of underwear, so I purchased three items together. After that, we went downstairs to the first floor, where I bought a Korean hair-dye product that is apparently designed to be used almost like shampoo. I also ended up buying a pair of slippers to wear at home. My Mom also bought a Korean product called "Bal-eul Ssiseuja" ("발을 씻자") which I recommended to her. It has apparently become extremely popular in Korea recently. The funny thing is that I somehow ended up with three separate receipts that day! First, I paid separately for the sports bras. Then I bought the hair-dye product and checked out separately. Later, while looking around for household items, I suddenly thought, "Oh, should I buy a pair of slippers too?" So I bought those separately as well. This place is always extremely popular because they sell such a huge variety of useful everyday products and household items. Because of that, the parking lot is always very crowded. There is security staff helping direct cars in the parking lot, which is helpful. However, the lot is still pretty tight and busy. I'm especially not very good at parking in narrow parking spaces, so it was actually really convenient and relaxing to come with my Mom, who is an excellent driver and very good at parking. Overall, I had a really nice shopping trip here with my Mom. It's one of those places where you can always find something useful, even when you didn't originally plan on buying it!

Kim's Home Center is the OG Home Goods shop in Koreatown and I love it…read more They have a small parking lot which can fill up quickly but it's nice that they have one in KTown! Staff has always been friendly and kind, keeping in mind speaking Korean is helpful if you are looking for something specific. It's NOT necessary, just helpful. They have so many Korean focused products mostly in home goods like kitchen items, tons of bedding, rice cookers and kimchi fridges, but also things like makeup, skincare and clothes. Well priced house slippers with a lot of options! The entire second floor is electronics and more expensive goods, which I hear are not the best to buy here. I usually stick to cheaper items, more kitchen and cooking related needs at Kim's. They have a pretty strict return policy which I hear is a bit risky for more pricey items. I went in specifically for Makgeolli supplies and was so happy to find the pot & cups I needed, at nearly half the price of amazon! Support local stores instead of shopping online! I'm definitely a fan of Kim's Home Center and will come here for all my related needs in the future.

They are now on 8th and Serrano, a block away from Zion Market. They have a lot of free parking in their garage. This store is huge like a warehouse with a ton of home goods, specifically geared to Korean cooking. I specifically was looking for Makgeolli supplies to hold a tasting when my friends come into town next month. I was happy they had supplies like the cups & pots for less money than they are sold on Amazon. I was happy they had different sizes and styles at various price points. I was able to find exactly what I needed and it was a very successful trip! If you have questions, it is much better to speak Korean although not necessary. Staff is very friendly and willing to help! My friend and I were also warmly greeted when we entered. Aside from cooking and kitchen items, Home Shopping World actually does have a very large selection of food items, plus skin care & cosmetics! I'll definitely be back for more shopping in the future.

They share a space with a florist that is open during the week, so I got confused and thought they opened during the week. They're not. The space is not huge, but it was fun to prowl around the different sections and find hidden treasures from Japan. The owner is really good about taking time to explain what each item is and the different uses, as well as care and handling. This place is such a huge contrast to shopping at Walmart. Made me think of a small town hardware shop that is the heart of the community with people stopping by to have keys made or knives sharpened or whatever random thing they need. These kinds of places are treasures! Definitely worth a visit and definitely worth supporting. Glad I did!
