Today I'm giving you a tour of a local market that not many people know about.  It's rare to see a foreigner here.  At Jungbu Market (sometimes called Chungbu), a wide assortment of dried food such as laver, seaweed, anchovies, yellow corbinas, squid, pollack, and dried filefish fillets are available at low prices. Jungbu Market is both a retail and wholesale market, and offers goods at prices 20-30% lower than those found at other markets. 

Each store only sells one or two types of seafood products, allowing for easy price comparison and top quality goods. Popular products include dried filefish fillets, laver, and Pollack.  

The market is also a popular site for buying food items used in ancestral rites and general home goods. The market opens at 4am and most stores close around 5pm. By 6pm the market grounds are quiet and inactive, so make sure to go before 3pm so that you have enough time to shop and look around.
