Local Legend Closes Shop—Here’s Why

Ever had a favorite neighborhood spot suddenly close? Japan Video and Media, the go-to for Japanese and Korean movies and anime in San Francisco, is shutting down—not because of money woes, but because the owner is finally taking a break after 40 years! It’s a reminder that sometimes, small businesses close not from lack of love, but because the people behind them deserve some R&R. If you love a local shop, show them some appreciation while you can! #SmallBusiness #Community #LocalLegends #Business
