Great market! Look for the modern coffee shop and ask for a lemon espresso and eat a ssiat hotteok. If you’re there in the winter they still do the old fashioned sweet potatoes which are amazing.

Amazing place for fresh seafood! Not only can you buy it but you can go upstairs and have them prepare it for you right away. Some of the workers are a pretty aggressive so if you just wanna look around and aren't interested in making a purchase, try not to make eye contact.

Varieties of seafoods available on ground floor. 1st floor got many restaurant provides the fresh seafood dish. Ask the price before place order. Might be pricey
