About
Gwangjang Market is the largest traditional market in Seoul, located in Yeji-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, and the first traditional trading market in Korea. It is the first permanent market in Korea with a history of over 100 years. It is famous for food such as raw beef and bindae-tteok. In particular, small gimbap, also known as drug gimbap, originated in Gwangjang Market. At the entrance, there are lumber stores, crockery stores, and furniture stores, and if you go into the inner intersection, the famous 'food alley' begins. Bindae-tteok, janchi-guksu, meat pancakes, raw beef, and codfish soup stores are famous. Since the specialty of Gwangjang Market is bindae-tteok, unlike other markets, when it rains, more people gather in the food alley, showing a strange phenomenon. In the area slightly off the food alley, there are mainly hanbok shops, bedding shops, lumber shops, and second-hand stores. This area is also busy during the day, but in the evening, there are so few people that you wonder if it is the same store, and since they close early, it feels very empty. It is also famous as a hanbok store that is popular these days. It is a traditional market that is especially famous among foreigners. It is famous as a famous place visited by many Hollywood stars who visited Korea.
