A visit to a traditional market in Korea is a must not only for its wide variety of regional goods and delicious food, but also for its distinctive local atmosphere. However, with so many traditional markets found throughout the country, visitors could feel quite lost when it comes to choosing their destination.

To help with making the decision, the Korea Tourism Organization and the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism have announced a list of traditional markets to represent the year of 2018. The list consists of 20 prominent traditional markets in Korea’s, including Namdaemun Market, Tongin Market, and Mangwon Market in Seoul as well as those in other major regions such as Incheon, Busan, and Gangwon-do. The selected markets will be offering diverse experience programs and multilingual promotional brochures to provide a more convenient and enjoyable market experience.
