Since we are not unable to visit Jagalchi Market yesterday due to massive jam and no parking (it's Chuseok long holiday), we visits Gijang Market instead at this morning before leaving Busan to Jeju in noon. Gijang market is seafood and fishery market, also widely known as King crabs market! There are both outdoor and indoor fishery market selling not only seasonal seafood but also agricultural products such as dried anchovies, seaweeds, Korean side dishes and even clothing are available just like other traditional market in Busan. Currently cutlass fish and flower crab is in the season - autumn, we just had flower crab dwenjang-guk as our breakfast this morning and it is yummy!
As Gijang is not a big city like Busan and not many foreigner tourist like us visit the market for sightseeing, few seafood seller ahjuma around the entrance actually not so welcoming and scolding us for taking photos instead of buying. Just stop taking picture to respect them if you encounter this. There are many friendly sellers at the back that very welcome you to have a look and take many pictures if you want. If you happens to visit Gijang while you are in Busan, don't miss out to taste the King crab or snow crab here in Gijang Sijang.
