Shilin Night Market in Taiwan 

vs 

Pusan International Market in Korea

This is the second time to compare foreign markets to Korean markets. Today, I’d like to introduce you Shilin Night Market in Taiwan and Pusan international Market in Korea.

 Because Taiwan is so humid and hot, there are lots of night markets in the country . Each city has at least 2-3 markets. Is it different from Korea? But, there is a common thing between two markets. That is the places where foreigners visit a lot.

You can choose some tropical fruits you want and pay for them in Shilin Night Market. Also, youcan enjoy fried chicken at a low price. Do you know Taiwan is called the destination of Epicureanism travel? Really! There are lots of delicious food :-)

International Market is located in Pusan, Korea. It has a sad historical story. 

After independence in1945, many Japanese gained one place to sold war supplies before leaving Korea. This is how the market was formed. After Korean war, refugees gathered and made the market activated more. Some products were smuggled through Pusan port and the products were spread throughout the country. 

There are lots of delicious foods, too. Fishcakes and Danpatjuk, sweet red-bean porridge with small rice dumplings! A row of food carts line the street!

Do you think the Shilin Night Market and Pusan International market has something in common?

Chandni Chowk in India VS Gwangjang Market in Korea

Do you remember we introduced a series of webtoons on Korean market where Global supporters visited? They accomplished another mission that compare foreign markets to Korean markets.

Lots of travelers say “If you want to see real face of the nation where you visit, you go to the traditional markets because they reflect culture and tradition of the country.”

So, we’d like to introduce some foreign markets and our traditional markets :-) The first markets are Chandni Chowk in India and Gwangjang Market in Korea!

Chandni Chowk is crowded with cars, people and cows. Here you can see lots of herbs and spices used in Indian food and cycle-rickshaw, common public transportation in India. Also, there are various foods in this market! If you visit here, you can enjoy lots of Indian food including curry.

Gwangjang market in Korea looks more organized than Chandni chowk. As we already introduced,this market is famous for foods such as drug Gimbap, tteokbokki, boiled fish cake and Japchae.

Also, there is 100-year-old Hanbok market in this market. Do you know Hanbok is Korean traditional clothes. You can buy a splendid version of the traditional hanbok in this market :-)
