With a 50-year history, Yeosu Fish Market, the largest of Yeosu’s three major seafood markets, retains the familiar charm of a traditional market while offering a pleasant, modernized setting with renovation work completed in 2011. The market epitomizes both tradition and modernity. Here, visitors can find fish species rarely seen in capital-area markets such as snailfish (Mulmegi), rockfish (Bollak), and Spanish mackerel for sashimi—all at affordable prices. The market is divided into three main sections of live fish, dried seafood, and food items. The live fish section uses clean seawater drawn from a dedicated seawater pipeline 400 meters deep, ensuring the freshness of its offerings. The dried seafood section features products processed and sun-dried in sea breeze at an on-site facility located on the market’s rooftop. In the food item section, visitors can purchase local specialties such as Yeosu-style gat kimchi and salted seafood. The night market features a variety of fresh seafood-based street foods, attracting crowds. Since the launch of the Viking Night Market in 2016, the area has become even livelier, packed with attractions to see and enjoy.

Yeosu’s agwi tang features a savory soybean paste base with fresh monkfish and bean sprouts, known for its mild yet flavorful taste. The seodae hoe is marinated in a unique blend of makgeolli (unrefined rice wine) vinegar and spicy seasoning, best enjoyed by mixing with rice and laver provided.
