We looked at Jagalchi Market — the stalls, then hoe, then kalguksu.

안녕하세요, What's Up Korea Story의 Minjae예요.
We looked at Nampo — three stops. Jagalchi first. Then two rooms Koreans still use after the market.
01 · Nampo
Busan Jagalchi Market · 부산 자갈치시장
Three minutes from Nampo Station exit 2. The stalls along the water first — fish, knives, the smell. This is the market. The rooms come after.
02 · Nampo
Busan Specialty Sashimi Restaurant · 부산명물횟집
Next door. Fifty years in one place. Hwaebaekbap — flounder hoe, a clear soup, rice. Four minutes from exit 2. The market on a plate, not a second lap of the stalls.
03 · Nampo
1969 Buwon-dong Kalguksu Nampo Branch · 1969부원동칼국수 남포본점
One minute from Nampo Station exit 1. Homemade kalguksu — knife-cut, a different temperature from the hoe. The last room on this Nampo list.
Three stops. Market, hoe, noodles — the Nampo loop locals still walk.
Keep walking
