Oseyo, the UK's largest Asian supermarket, is a familiar name among fans of Korean culture and cuisine. Its stores can be found across the country, serving as hubs for Korean food and assorted other products, with the modern stores packed to the brim with all sorts of goods. It also offers hot takeaway food and speciality drinks, as well as loads of K-Pop paraphernalia.

On Saturday 20 July, the supermarket opened its second location in Manchester, joining its first one in Oxford Road. Situated in the Arndale shopping centre, the new Oseyo store is the brand's biggest one yet, covering 13,000 sq ft – for a better idea of just how massive that is, the space used to be the first floor of an H&M store. Even so, lengthy queues formed on opening day due to the brand's popularity.

If you want to see the shiny new store for yourself and pick up some weird and wonderful treats while you're at it, stop by Manchester Arndale. The store is open daily.
