- KatrinaDecember 19, 2014Fun place for lunch. So many stands to choose from. One area is mainly Mung Bean Pancakes and another are all dumplings stalls. We had a yummy fulfilling lunch for ₩10,000.
- Ko RickerMay 28, 2015Had great mandu. All the stall food looked great, I bet you couldn't go wrong. You could get lost looking at hanbok and cloth and souvenirs for hours in the twisty alleys! My favorite market so far!
- TingJanuary 24, 2016Rubbed shoulders with locals and tourists alike to try the various snacks and food offerings available here. During winter, thoughtful bench heating warms your bottom while you munch away. Nice!
- Frances JamesJuly 7, 2017Great market with local food that's open late. Look around for some exotic seafood - we had live baby octopus and raw beef; there are also excellent mungbean pancakes with kimchi
- Ruben Garcia MohedanoDecember 17, 2018The best street food is here, bring cash! There are also so many shops around the main food “streets” with clothes, fabrics and traditional Korean dresses that it’s easy to get lost.
- Angeline TeohJanuary 3, 2019Always the perfect place to search for street food like tteokpokki, live octopus, seafood, gimbap, mungbean pancake, and many more. Best to explore on empty stomach during lunch time
- AManda HUangJune 10, 2017Lots of Traditional and authentic. Most of stalls serve pretty good korean food. Get the kim bap(rice rolls with pickled vege) and the sweet potato noodles and spicy Korean rice cake.Great for foodies
- Eun HwangDecember 26, 2014[박가네 육회] ddukbokki : average. Nothing special. Bean pancake : YES. I loved it. Delicious. You could actually see the chef frying pancakes in front of the door. Beef sashimi : MUST TRY. The best.
- Greta DalyaprakJanuary 4I stayed just 1 min away from this market so every day I was coming here to try new foods. There is so much to choose from and prices also great, everything is clean and must place to come!!
- CharisMay 22, 2016Had some of the best local fares here: don't miss out mung bean pancake, kimbab (rice rolls), boribap (bibimbap but with barley), mandu (dumpling) and raw octopus!
- Joanne WilliamsNovember 26, 2019One of the best markets I’ve been to! The food we had (mainly from the stalls featured on Netflix, because why not, it was a Monday so not too busy) was all excellent.
- Joachim OoiNovember 4, 2017A street food paradise place to be. Do try out Stall 11 & 54 for their Bibimbap & Drug Octopus. You can also buy back Honey Almond Peanuts from most of the shops there. -Penang Kia Food Critique-
- Gregory K.November 9, 2015Mung bean pancakes are the main jam there. But you really can't go wrong with any of food stall options. Just pick one that fits your explorative mood
- Gorkem OzSeptember 21, 2016Fun and lively place to visit. Some food stalls were open after 11 pm. Go for the bean pancakes with a bottle of makgeolli. Prices are very reasonable.
- JoanneOctober 28, 2019You MUST come here. It's quite the experience. The food is absolutely delicious as well. Things to try out: mungbean pancakes, kimbap, oden, dumplings, chicken feet (dak bal).
- Allie QuinnJanuary 3, 2015Crazy hectic and crowded, but a good place to have a cheap, quick meal! Try some "drug kimbab" (마약김밤) and some makgeolli. Food stands stay open until about 11PM.
- Maxwell HouseJune 30, 2018This is mostly a food market with an array of dishes and ingredients to try. The bindaedak 비대딱 (?) - is good. Mung bean fritter. Usually very busy but quieter week day evenings.
- Andrew MeanyApril 22, 2016In the evening most of the shops close up and the food stalls are packed with locals. You'll find some great and weird cuisine here, served by the friendly older generation of Korean women.
- Simple DiscoveriesMay 6, 2016A must-visit if you want authentic Korean street food. Look for the vendors with long lines or add indicating they've been featured on Korean TV. We enjoyed some Korean pancakes :).
- Martin D. CiaoOctober 27, 2014Lots of good food options at Gwangjang Sijang. However, since everyone is making the same items, need to do some research to find the original or really good food stall.
- Angela N.October 30, 2013Most frenetic night market...ever! You can't miss the Bindaetteok, huge skillet fried mung bean pancakes for 10,000 won. This is a one stop shop for a lot of typical Korean street food.
- John ChoDecember 10, 2018This is what an actual market looks like! Food that you cannot see anywhere else but Korea. Mung Bean Pancake with Korean Rice Wine and Raw Beef with Soju, these are the flavors of Korea.
- Kars AlfrinkNovember 18, 2014The night market is a sight to behold. A great place to sample Korean street food, including bindaetteok. You'll need to be willing to elbow your way in!
- Vivian CheahJanuary 2, 2016Mung bean cakes was quite good. The dumplings too. Seafood stalls are available here too. You can try out octopus sashimi here at about 15k won.
- Alice AlyssJune 13, 2016Don't miss joining the locals for some chives and zucchini pancakes with some soju (Korean rice wine).
- Kinsa DurstAugust 19, 2014Bit crowded, but if you enjoy Korean street food this place is a must visit. Can also get some exotic Korean food around this area(dog soup, live squid)

- Kassyn NgDecember 11, 2016Other than the food, explore the shops for good quality made-in-Korea sports wear.
- Eunice CheungApril 26, 2014This place isn't exactly tourist friendly. Especially when it comes to the street stalls. You will have to know what you want to eat. E.g Soondae / Binddaedeok and their Jeon! (:
- Shelly ZordichMay 28, 2015Go and just wander. Such a cool place to see what all you can buy. Also, tourist souvenirs are the cheapest I've found in Seoul.
