Kukje Market

The Kukje Market in Pusan is as large as the Namdaemun Market in Seoul, and offers almost every kind of product in abundance. It started as a market where refugees, having flowed into Pusan in the wake of the nation's liberation, and the Korean War in particular, set up business. Kukje Market is comprised of six shopping blocks formed around alleyways. You can buy almost anything you want, from Korean traditional dresses and fabrics, textiles, clothing, bags, and eye-glasses, to curtains and accessories, at wholesale prices. With these shopping blocks as the core, there are stationary shops, mirror and frame shops, and towel shops along the street adjacent to Pup'yong-dong, and electronic goods, leather items, bags, blankets, umbrellas, and handcrafts shops along the street leading to Shinch'ang-dong. Many shops are clustered between the shopping blocks, selling eating utensils, bedspreads, keys and machine components.

There are a large number of foreigners visiting this market, attracted by large selections of inexpensive items.
  Naturally, most of the middle-aged women merchants doing business in the market can use a small number of necessary English expressions.
Another attraction that you cannot miss about the Kukje Market is the Mokjagolmok, or the street of stalls selling snacks. This is unique in that it is situated at the heart of downtown, which is not the case in other cities.
Each and every one, regardless of sex and age, can relieve hunger with chapch'ae or Chinese noodles fried with vegetables, ttokpokki or steamed rice sticks seasoned with hot sauce, kimbap or rice rolled in a sheet of laver, and sundae or sausages made of meat, vegetables and bean curd stuffed in sausage casings.
Of course you can enjoy a cup of hot coffee with the nice aroma of open-air cafes.
