Gyeongdong Market

Gyeongdong Market is a traditional market that naturally formed on an empty lot near Cheongnyangni Station as life in Seoul began to recover after the Korean War. Since its official opening in June 1960, it has established itself as a large-scale traditional market centered on various foods and herbal medicines. Recently, the neglected Gyeongdong Theater was renovated and reborn as a complex cultural space frequented by the younger generation. As the market's diverse foods have been introduced through broadcasts and other media, visitors have steadily increased. It is a market that is always lively with a high floating population not only on weekends but also on weekdays.
