Seoul Gyeongdong Market (서울 경동시장)

Gyeongdong Market is a traditional market that naturally formed in an open space near Cheongnyangni Station as life in Seoul began to recover following 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 medicinal herbs. Recently, the abandoned Gyeongdong Theater was renovated and reborn as a complex cultural space frequented by the younger generation. With a high volume of foot traffic not only on weekends but also on weekdays, the market remains vibrant at all times.
