In this episode, Appa (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) and Umma (Jean Yoon) are concerned about Jung (Simu Liu) after he tells them that he's been working a lot of overtime at the car rental agency where he works. They become even more worried when they realize that Jung has been living in his car and using the company's cardboard boxes as furniture.

Meanwhile, Janet (Andrea Bang) is trying to come up with a project for her photography class. She initially takes inspiration from her mother's Korean cooking, but her teacher isn't impressed with the results. Janet then has the idea to photograph the convenience store and its regular customers, which proves to be a hit with her classmates.

As for the store itself, Kimchee (Andrew Phung) discovers that a new "organic" convenience store has opened up down the street. He convinces Appa to start selling organic products as well, but things don't go quite as planned.

Overall, "Cardboard Jung" deals with themes of work stress, financial struggles, and cultural identity. It's a humorous and heartwarming episode that highlights the challenges faced by first-generation immigrants and their children, while also celebrating their resilience and resourcefulness.
