Convenience Store Part-Time Korean #1 | From Greetings to Checkout

👋 Hello! This is Vijob.

🇰🇷 Are you planning to start a part-time job at a convenience store in Korea?

When you start working at a convenience store, speaking Korean to customers may feel harder than stocking items or handling checkout.

💬 What should you say when a customer comes in?

🛍️ How do you ask if they need a bag?

🧾 What phrase should you use when offering a receipt?

Don't worry! 😊

Today, let's learn 6 basic Korean phrases you can use right away when working at a convenience store.

👋 1. When a customer comes in

"어서 오세요!"

This is the first greeting you say when a customer enters the convenience store.

• 👋 어서 오세요! (Welcome!)

• 😊 안녕하세요! (Hello!)

Greet them brightly and naturally when they come in.

💡 Korean TIP

"어서 오세요" is a phrase you can use often not only at convenience stores, but also at cafes, restaurants, clothing stores, and more.

🛒 2. When starting checkout

"계산 도와드릴게요."

This is a phrase you can use when a customer brings items to the counter.

👨‍💼 Staff: 계산 도와드릴게요. (I’ll help you with checkout.)

🙋 Customer: 네, 감사합니다. (Yes, thank you.)

💡 Korean TIP

"도와드릴게요" is a phrase used when politely helping a customer.

🛍️ 3. When asking if they need a bag

"봉투 필요하세요?"

This is a question you’ll use often during checkout.

👨‍💼 Staff: 봉투 필요하세요? (Do you need a bag?)

🙋 Customer: 네, 하나 주세요. (Yes, one please.)

Or

🙋 Customer: 아니요, 괜찮아요. (No, I'm okay.)

💡 Korean TIP

• 🛍️ 봉투 = Bag

• ✅ 필요하다 = To need

• ☝️ 하나 주세요 = One, please

If the store charges for bags, let the customer know the price too.

💬 "봉투는 100원인데 필요하세요?" (A bag is 100 won. Do you need one?)

📌 The amount above is just for practice. Please check the actual price at each store.

💳 4. When checking the payment method

"카드로 결제하시겠어요?"

This is a phrase you can use when checking how the customer wants to pay.

👨‍💼 Staff: 카드로 결제하시겠어요? (Would you like to pay by card?)

🙋 Customer: 네, 카드로 할게요. (Yes, I'll pay by card.)

👨‍💼 Staff: 네, 감사합니다. (Yes, thank you.)

📚 Words worth knowing together!

• 💳 카드 = Card

• 💵 현금 = Cash

• 💰 결제 = Payment

• 🛒 계산 = Checkout / Payment

🧾 5. When offering a receipt

"영수증 드릴까요?"

This is a phrase you use after checkout to ask if the customer needs a receipt.

👨‍💼 Staff: 영수증 드릴까요? (Would you like a receipt?)

🙋 Customer: 아니요, 괜찮아요. (No, thank you.)

Or

🙋 Customer: 네, 주세요. (Yes, please.)

💡 Korean TIP

"드릴까요?" is an expression you use to politely ask a customer whether they would like something.

For example,

🛍️ "봉투 드릴까요?" (Would you like a bag?)

🧾 "영수증 드릴까요?" (Would you like a receipt?)

you can use it like this.

🙏 6. When the customer is leaving

"감사합니다. 안녕히 가세요!"

When the customer finishes paying and leaves, wrap up with a thank-you.

• 🙏 감사합니다! (Thank you!)

• 👋 안녕히 가세요! (Goodbye!)

Using both expressions together sounds more natural. 😊
