Jangheung Jeongnamjin Saturday Market

 Have you ever heard about Jangheung? It is a little strange place for both foreigner and some Koreans located in Jeollanam-do, KOREA. It is a place in the cleanest environments because Korea government has propelled national land development except Jangheung. So, environment and people in it are too clean and pure. This is why we called it ‘saved land’.

Jangheung Market is also keeping pure and traditional things like Jangheung. Do you know ‘Daemul’, a famous Korean drama which was the first drama to deal with a female president along with politics and government power around her? It was in Jangheung Market that Kwon sang woo’s father ran the Gukbap restaurant in the drama.

Although it is not that big, it is crowded with lots of people in the market day. It became famous through word of mouth and many tourists visited here. So, the county decided to throw a market on Saturdays to encourage urbanities to visit the market. It is the first weekend market in Korea.

The most interesting thing in this market is that you can see grandmas who pin a name tags such as ‘Yunhwa’ and ‘Jeongja’. They are authorized vendors who sell handmade foods and greens. The county and granmas have confidence in this system and we can buy products with trust.

Do you wonder the charm of saved land, Jangheung? 

Welcome to Jangheung Market!

[Talk Talk Market) Maeil Olle Market in Seogwipo

Maeil Olle Market in Seogwipo

At the heart of the walking trend in Korea is the Jeju Olle path. The Olle path-walking craze has improved business for a traditional market in Jeju and even resulted in its changing the name.

Initially held every five days from 1965, the market turned into a regular market named Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market. The emergence of large-scale marts and modernized distribution chains had taken away customers, but the popularity of Olle path and the arrival of those wanting to walk on this natural road revitalized the market.

Located in the downtown of Seogwipo in Jeju, the market is located on the route of the 6th Jeju Olle course (Soesokkak- Oedolgae). A leisurely walk inside the market offers an Olle experience among people’s daily lives.

To promote an ‘Olle culture,’ the market strictly complies with its business principles of marking the source of production and prohibiting cars after noon. These principles were set to guarantee honesty in transactions and to create an atmosphere where people can walk in the market at ease. A stream runs through the market, one meter wide and 100 meters long. It is the first such ecological space established in a traditional market in Korea.

Omaegitteok (A chewy rice cake dough colored in green using mugwort, filled with a red bean paste, and then covered with pounded red bean), mandarin oranges, fresh seafood (hairtail, tile fish, eel, hagfish)

Of all the places named Moraenae in the country, a stream in JeonjuCity’s Inhu-dong in North JeollaProvince points to JeonjuCity’s Moraenae.

Most people want hot dishes like mandu particularly on a windy day. Glancing at mandu just taken out of hot pot through smoky steam will make your mouth water.

Among various types of Sinpo mandu, kimchi mandu is frequently recommended. The filling ingredients are mainly a combination of finely chopped Kimchi and grinded meat. The well-fermented Kimchi gives sourish flavor to this mandu, which spices up the taste.

(white, red, yellow, green, brown)
 

 

Beautiful 5-color mandu is made by dyeing with natural colors, so it is harmless to human health. Because there are five different colored mandus, kids enjoy the privilege of having choices.

 

 

 

Tip.
The filling inside mandu is salted enough that you do not need to dip it in the soy sauce. Yet, if you are worried about fat content, dipping mandu in soysauce with vinegar is recommended since it lowers caloric intake. Also, mandu dipped in soy sauce with red pepper will give you the taste of bliss when you tour to Korea.
