It is the epitome of a traditional market in the city with a history of more than 100 years. It consists of a vintage shopping mall and food alleys, and it is full of things to enjoy for both men and women of all ages. On one side of the market, there are shops selling fabrics, blankets, Pyebaek (traditional ceremony to pay respect to the groom's family) supplies shops, and other items needed for weddings and ancestral rites, allowing visitors to see traditional Korean rituals.
