A little closer

Gwangjang Market combines textile and everyday-goods shops with stalls serving food. Walk through the market lanes before choosing a meal, taking in both its trading activity and its food culture.

Before you go

Menus and opening hours vary by stall. Confirm the price, portion and payment method before ordering, and ask the individual vendor about ingredients or dietary needs.
