CJ Foodville is entering the convenience meal market with a new brand called Common Eats.
The South Korean food company plans to open its first location near Gangnam Station in Seoul early next month.

The launch follows the introduction of CJ Foodville's Italian bistro brand Olipépe last December.
The company has not said what happens after the first opening.
