[2025 Busan Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for Jagalchi Market (Updated Mar)

A must-visit for your trip to Busan is Jagalchi Market. It is Korea's largest seafood market🐟 Freshly caught fish and shellfish are lined up to the end of the street✨ Inside the building, you can have the seafood you bought cooked and eaten on the second floor, which is the best🎵 The sea is right in front of you, so the view is great, and there is a wide selection of alcoholic drinks🍺 Cooking fee: W5000. Seat fee: W5000 per person. The fishmongers' prices are sometimes high and you need to negotiate, so if you're worried, it's a good idea to eat at a restaurant that clearly states the price😊 In the basement of the market building, there is also a hidden gem restaurant called "Damyang Restaurant 담양식당" that opens from breakfast time for market people. It is located by the sea in Nampo-dong, where there are many tourist attractions, so it is recommended to just drop in and enjoy the atmosphere🎵 On the floor selling dried goods, you can also purchase Korean seaweed. There is an elevator and clean toilets on each floor. 📍Location: 52 Jagalchihaean-ro, Jung-gu, Busan, Korea 🕰️Opening hours: 9am-9pm Subway Line 1, Jagalchi Station Exit 7 is convenient🚃 #BusanTrip #JagalchiMarket #NampoDong #OverseasTravelMemories #BusanTrip2024 #100TravelStyles

#100 Ways to Travel Address: 52 Jagalchihaean-ro, Jung-gu, Busan, South Korea Atmosphere/Facilities: Dining area on the second floor, seafood market, credit card service, restrooms Features: Fresh seafood, valet cooking Price per person: 20,000 won Rating: Busan’s most famous seafood market, with a very large overall building area. There are many seafood vendors on the first floor who will sell you their own fish. Personally, I think the prices are all about the same. It just depends on how well you get along with the boss. There are many kinds of fish and aquatic products that I have never seen before. Most of the prices are clearly marked and credit cards are accepted. Some stores are more passive and don't want to show the price list. Before making a purchase, remember to ask the store owner to see the price list before choosing the seafood. Isolation suggests that flounder and king crab are both seafood worth tasting. The king crab here costs about 200,000 to 240,000 Korean won per kilogram, which is equivalent to 5,000 to 6,000 Taiwan dollars per month. After you have selected your seafood and paid the bill on the first floor, the vendor will ask someone to take you to the second floor to sit. The seat usage and cleaning fee per person is 5,000 won (the store will provide all-you-can-eat side dishes). The cooking fee for valet service will be quoted to you based on the ingredients and cooking methods you choose, but it is mostly 5,000 won. The dining area on the second floor is not very comfortable and the seats are not very spacious. It offers views of the harbour. The table was almost full with side dishes and wine. Therefore, it is recommended that you ask the store to serve the seafood in batches, or pay attention to the amount you order at one time. If you don’t choose the restaurant on the second floor yourself, you can order food or order more directly. In general, the seafood at Jagalchi Market is very fresh, and the prices are not as cheap as before. But compared to seafood in other countries or seafood restaurants in the city, considering the consumption price and dining environment, I personally think it still has a certain degree of cost-effectiveness and competitiveness.

#eatlikealocal #100waysoftravel #southkorea #busan #seafood **"Eating Like a Local: Fresh Seafood Feast at Busan's Jagalchi Market"** One of my favorite experiences when visiting Busan is definitely savoring the fresh, raw seafood at Jagalchi Market. The market is a paradise for seafood lovers, with endless stalls offering everything from raw octopus (sannakji) and live abalone to an array of shellfish, including scallops, mussels, and sea urchins. The raw octopus, still wriggling on the plate, is an adventurous delicacy best eaten with a dipping sauce of sesame oil and salt, providing a burst of flavor and texture. The abalone, tender and briny, is often served raw or lightly grilled, highlighting its natural sweetness. Vendors skillfully prepare the seafood on the spot, and many restaurants within the market will cook your purchases to order, whether grilled, steamed, or served raw in the traditional Korean way. Paired with spicy gochujang, garlic, and fresh vegetables, each bite feels like a celebration of the sea, making it an unforgettable way to eat like a true local. The seafood goes so well with a bottle of soju, just like a scene out of a Korean drama. An ajuma even helped us grill the shellfish and cut them into bite-sized pieces, despite the language barrier. Her kindness, along with the freshness of the seafood, made it an unforgettable way to eat like a true local.

#travellerswonderland You don't have to look far, when looking for the freshest seafood in busan korea. Just head down to the lively Jagalchi seafood market and you will be wowed by the number of stalls at this market. Both inside and outside of the market, are lined with different seafood stalls selling their freshest and nicest seafood products. You can even buy the seafood and have it cooked right away on the 2nd floor of the market where there are restaurants that will help you do so. Do expect to see lots of huge live abalone, clams, different types of shell fish, the unique sea pineapple, etc. Also, don't miss out on the top deck of the market where it is an observation deck. You see can see the sea port where fisherman's boats are locked and the pretty views of the open sea, right in front of the market. This place is worth a visit!

"Bo Bae" is a restaurant located in Jagalchi Market, which specializes in seafood. You can taste fresh fish that has been butchered on the spot. There is a menu, but you can negotiate what you want to eat and your budget before ordering. 　　 ▼White fish and abalone sashimi 50,000w I negotiated and ordered that I wanted to eat sashimi. To be honest, it's a tourist price, so it's better to go to a restaurant outside the market. 　　 A set of 5 types of white fish such as flounder and sea bream and abalone. We were able to compare the taste of male and female abalone. The female was delicious, with its softness and creamy flavor. Korean-style sashimi is served dipped in vinegar and gochujang, or wrapped in lettuce. Wasabi and soy sauce are available on the tables, so you can enjoy it the Japanese way. There are so many restaurants in Jagalchi Market that it's hard to decide which one to go to. The ingredients and prices are almost all the same at all the restaurants, but we recommend taking a good look at the menu with photos to check what you want to eat and the price. 　　 ───────────── ▼Bo Bae (Bo Bae / 보배상회) No. 85, 421 Jagalchi-ro, Jung-gu, Busan Hours: 10:00-21:00 Closed: Irregularly Access: 3-minute walk from Jagalchi Station on Subway Line 1 ───────────── #0 yen travel #Travel with me #Jagalchi market #Fresh seafood #Jagalchi gourmet #Busan gourmet #Busan trip #Busan sightseeing #Korean gourmet #Korea trip #Korea sightseeing

#KoreaTrip ~ Hong Kong Travel~ I really wanted to eat seafood in Busan, so I ate at Jagalchi Market just before the time to go home. 🐟What I ordered... Sashimi bibimbap (15,000w) I was running around not knowing how to eat it, but the waiter poured vinegar gochujang on it and mixed it up for me. There was plenty of sashimi and vegetables, and the flying fish roe was crunchy and delicious. The sashimi didn't have a strong smell either! In addition to bibimbap, we also got chijimi, kimchi, bibimbap noodles, and porridge (abalone?) for a good price. Everyone else was eating crab, but it was OK for one person! -------------------------- Public Market Busan Central, Busan 38th Street, Busan 2 Jagalchi Station Exit 10 9:00-18:00 -------------------------- #Jagalchi Market #Korea #Busan #Busan Gourmet #Korea Trip #Korean Gourmet #busan #Busan Trip #Korea Solo Trip #Korea Travel Diary #Korea Information #Korea Girls Trip ##Korea Travel Information #Bibimbap

We also visited the largest Palace, Gyeongbokgung in Seoul, Nami Island, Petite France and Garden of the morning calm. Good first trip to korea!

Going to Busan, in the Zhaziqi seafood market, I photographed the most satisfying and favorite photos, the lively market, the lively hawking, and the bustling world of fireworks noon, when it was super lively, when shooting Be careful not to leave the booth too close, very rude.

It was fun because it's a sight you don't often see in Japan. #BusanTrip

#January travel support event The Jagalchi Ajumma that everyone knows. The phrase "Oiso Boiso Saiso" comes from here! Every October, the Jagalchi Festival is held here, so it's a really famous place in Busan, so I'm introducing it to you! You should definitely visit there too!

#January Travel Support Event Another recommended tourist attraction for those who visit Yeongdo Bridge to see the dog show is Jagalchi Market. Jagalchi Market is one of the most famous fish markets in the country! It is close to downtown Busan, so many foreigners visit there! There are many raw fish restaurants and things to see.

#January Travel Support Event Jagalchi Market, a must-visit when traveling to Busan.

#0 yen trip February 2025 I took a Korean cruise ship (Panstar) from Osaka Nanko for about 18 hours. I found a very cheap way to go on Black Friday with the tour company HIS, and used a two-person cabin for one person, which included four meals on the way there (morning and night) and one night stay there, for about 34,000 yen. The trip there and back was all buffet style, and the dinner on the ship was mostly meat dishes, and the seafood was only grilled fish in the morning, which was disappointing. 18 hours seems long, but there was a sauna in the large bath, three Korean TV channels were available in the cabin, and there was a cafe that served alcohol for an additional fee, as well as a 24-hour convenience store and duty-free shop, so I didn't get bored. The new ship also has a pool. Also, on the way there, we had a singing contest, and on the way back, we could listen to the crew singing and playing the piano. Busan was very open, and there were many new buildings, so I think those who are going to Busan Station for the first time will get lost. However, as soon as I arrived at the terminal, I saw Busan Tower, which I wanted to go to, and I was able to walk there. Around the tower, there are tourist and gourmet spots such as Lotte Department Store, Gukje Market, and Jagalchi Market, and I enjoyed it to the fullest even though I only stayed overnight. As for taking the subway, Busan Station is too large and I couldn't find the ticket booth or how to get on, but I was able to easily find the train going from Gukje Market to Busan Station. You can buy tickets in Japanese, so you won't get lost. As for eating locally, you can choose fish at the market and have it cooked for you. If you are worried about hygiene, I recommend the food court at Lotte Department Store. I used it on the day I arrived and the next day before leaving. It was no different from Japan (Osaka). A new ship will depart around spring this year.

Busan is famous for its seafood, so I found one that received high ratings from netizens. The shop is like some familiar markets, with a street market downstairs and underground. We ordered a small plate of oysters and a small seafood pot (you can tell the waiter how spicy it is, or not spicy) The waitress was very nice and attentive, and she gave us more oysters and seafood hotpot ingredients. The oysters are plump and the seafood hotpot soup base is very delicious, and it is first-rate when added with vermicelli or noodles! This meal cost us HKD380, 💰 Average consumption per person: HKD 190 Very satisfied

#Domestic travel This time, I will introduce you to the eel direct sales market located in Jagalchi Market. There are many stores in Jagalchi Market, but I wanted to buy some good eel to take home this time, so I visited after receiving a recommendation from a local resident. It is 302 Gyeongjo Sanghoe on the first floor. The owner is very conscientious, and the eel itself is large and delicious. You can go up to this floor and eat right away, or you can take it home and eat it. 1kg of domestic eel costs 40,000 won. The seasoning sauce is 5,000 won for a small container and 8,000 won for a large container, and it is a delicious seasoning that can be used as another seasoning. ✔️Address: 52 Jagalchihaean-ro, Jung-gu, Busan

#Domestic travel This time, I will introduce you to the eel restaurant located in Jagalchi Market, Busan. There are many eel restaurants in Jagalchi Market, but the ratings are ambiguous, so I was worried and found this place! The Kakao rating is also quite high at 4.0. I ate the 70,000 won version because they said that half-and-half eel is available from medium to large, and it was enough for 3 people. The eel was cleaned right away and grilled over charcoal before eating. It is very delicious, so I recommend it. ✔️Business hours 10:00 - 22:00 ✔️Regular holidays 5th Wednesday of every month ✔️Store number 0507-1417-2209

The place I'm introducing this time is the original 73-year-old, third-generation Mom's Charcoal-Grilled Hagfish at Jagalchi Market, which offers a seafood trio set. While hagfish restaurants at Jagalchi Market generally don't have good ratings, this one is different, so I decided to visit. The owner is very friendly, and the interior of the store is clean. When you order from the menu, they serve abalone sashimi, sea squirt, and live octopus as complimentary appetizers before the meal. Since hagfish can be a bit pricey, I recommend grilling it over charcoal. ✔️ Business hours: 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM ✔️ Regular holiday: Every 5th Wednesday of the month ✔️ Store number: 0507-1417-2209

#getgoing2025 Jagalchi Fish Market in Busan, South Korea, is a renowned seafood haven. This bustling market, largely operated by women known as "Jagalchi Ajumma," offers a vibrant and energetic atmosphere. From fresh catches to dried seafood, the market presents a diverse array of options. Visitors can choose their own seafood, which is then expertly prepared by nearby restaurants. Jagalchi Market is a must-visit for seafood lovers and those seeking an authentic Korean culinary experience.

#January travel support event #Busan travel If you go to Jagalchi Market in Nampo-dong, Busan at night, you can see the empty Busan Port night sea. It's not a particularly nice view, but it's a place where you can slowly and quietly enjoy the leisure of the night sea. It's a place with the romance of the night sea.

When I visited in December 2024, Jagalchi Market had been renovated! The tatami seating on the second floor was gone, and all the seats were replaced with table seats💡 The aisles have been widened, and it is now easy to place strollers and wheelchairs next to the seats👍 As before, the sea spreads out beyond the windows♪ The current Jagalchi Market began as a collection of places where seafood was traded at outdoor stalls during the poverty of the Korean War. Nampo-dong is the number one tourist spot in central Busan. Among them, it is a place that you must visit and feel the local vitality. It is divided into an outdoor traditional market and a modern market inside a building, and of course there are dried fish and fresh live fish, but when you go inside, you can see large abalone, crabs, and sea urchins. Look to the side and you will see scallops, clams, and oysters. Rare items such as yumushi, which tastes like ark shellfish, and rare sea squirts are lined up in a small space. The fish tanks are arranged to be easily seen by the customers, so it's like an aquarium⭐️ My kids were excited to point at them😊 Price negotiation is required, but if you decide on an amount and say something like "Please recommend something for 30,000 won," they will choose according to the number of people and your preferences👍 It costs W5000 per person for a seat, but you can buy on the first floor and have it cooked on the second floor. The cooking fee is W5000. The elevator is spacious enough for a stroller. The toilets are also clean✨ It's not well known, but if you leave the Jagalchi Market building on the sea side, there is a fishing boat dock, and you can see the ocean view that is truly Busan!♪ It's also fun to take a walk while looking at the bustling sea. People who were fishing showed the fish to the kids and we were able to interact with them😊 📍Location: 52 Jagalchihaean-ro, Jung-gu, Busan, Korea 🕰️Business hours: 9am-9pm Subway Line 1, Jagalchi Station Just outside Exit 7✨ #Busan #Traveling with kids in Busan #Traveling with babies in Busan #Nampo-dong #Jagalchi Market #Asia Travel Record

Jagalchi Market ⭐️ There is a shop where we can buy fresh seafood sold in the market and have the shop cook it for us. Whether it's boiled, steamed, baked or fried, the shop can do it for you. Simply put, buy from the shop and then sit and wait beautifully on the 2nd floor for a moment, then you can eat the seafood that we just bought. ⭐️ The shop will serve us with dipping sauce, but there is no Thai seafood dipping sauce. If anyone wants to dip it with Thai seafood dipping sauce, we recommend that you prepare it yourself. The seafood that we don't want to miss is the giant crab legs because they are big and the meat is sweet, including the giant squid. The price is worth the deliciousness. ⭐️ Place name: Jagalchi Market, Busan Time: 05:00-22:00 Recommended to come from 9 am onwards (Closed every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the week) Directions: Jagalchi Station Exit 10 #busan #travelkorea

We took the train from Seoul to Busan and stayed 2 nights there. We visited Jagachi Market which is one of the popular and largest seafood market in Busan. we are super lucky to find a nice stall (ps see the stall number in one of the photos) who sold us king crabs and snow crabs at super reasonable price which we strongly recommend cause we are obviously not local as we cannot speak the language well. The store owner can speak simple English and we had seafood once a day there. 100% recommend to go to the stall, but feel free to look around. #newyearnewtrip

Super cheap, a table of king crabs for 300,000 won About NT$6,800 for 5 people, just right, 1,300 per person on average, too cheap
