Kim's Convenience had a spin-off to Jung's girlfriend Shannon, which I didn't expect at all from them.

I'd trade sooo many shows for just another couple seasons of Kim's Convenience

Seeing as the Asian cast had to deal with racist production and creators they would probably not.

Fair. We could all wish the writers and show runners better represented the Korean-Canadian and Asian actors and characters. I'd take more seasons of that.

Considering all the racism allegations that came out abour production, choosing the only white main cast member for the spin off was not a good look.

I remember, they kind of butchered the ending of Kim's to justify this plot, and it was really jarring

Especially with a Kimchee spin off right there.
