Jagalchi Market

About

About
‘Oiso! Boiso! Saiso!’ These are the famous phrases that describe Jagalchi Market. Jagalchi Market, a traditional market representing Busan along with Gukje Market and Bupyeong Kkangtong Market located nearby, is one of the largest fish markets in Korea. You can see the lively atmosphere of Jagalchi Market. Jagalchi Market got its name because of the fist-sized pebbles on the beach. Since the Japanese colonial period, there have been stalls selling seafood. As a result of the Korean War, many refugees flocked to Busan, and houses built out of planks were built along the coast around Jagalchi. As stalls selling fish in Jagalchi began to sprout up to make a living, a large-scale seafood market naturally emerged, forming the current Jagalchi Market. The indoor modern market, where newly organized stores and stores that still retain their old appearance coexist, is filled with fish jumping out of each tank along the blocks arranged in a checkerboard pattern. A place where you can eat fresh raw fish while looking at the ocean in the city is the romance of Busan. If you eat a piece of fresh raw fish, grilled fish that is golden brown, and spicy fish stew while looking at the ocean with the horizon, Jagalchi Market and Busan's ocean will become even more memorable.
