Located in the quiet Seochon, west of Gyeongbokgung Palace, Tongin Market is a place where long history and unique charm coexist. The specialty here is undoubtedly the 'Yeopjeon Dosirak', offering a special experience where you buy old brass coins called yeopjeon, roam around the market, and directly pick and choose the side dishes you want for your lunchbox. The savory Gireum Tteokbokki (oil tteokbokki), sizzled in oil, is also an unmissable delicacy.
Stroll through the lively market alleys and feel the warm-hearted daily life of Seoul through the merchants' warm hospitality and delicious food.
