Jagalchi Market, located on the seaside road in Busan’s Jung-gu, is one of the largest seafood markets in Korea, selling both live and dried fish. After the Korean War, the market solidified itself as a fish market. Most of the people who sell fish are women, so the vendors here are called Jagalchi Ajumeoni, “ajumeoni” meaning middle-aged or married woman in Korean.

This market represents Busan and is famous throughout the country. Visitors can eat fresh raw fish right at the market. Even nowadays visitors can see women selling mackerel, sea squirts (ascidians) and other seafood on wooden boxes along the road outside of the market and along the shore.

⊙ Gukje Market (국제시장)

gukjemarket.co.kr

The current marketplace of Gukje Market first formed after the liberation of Korea from the Japanese administration when people gathered to trade overseas products left by the Japanese and brought in by Koreans who came back from abroad. Following the Korean War, refugees who fled to Busan set up stalls in order to make a living by selling smuggled or imported products, which developed into Gukje Market (gukje meaning “international” in Korean) of today. Gukje Market is one of Korea’s largest markets and a testament to Korea’s modern history. The market is divided into two wings, and first-timers to the market are advised to be careful not to get lost in the maze-like alleys and halls.
