Yeosu Seosijang Market
Yeosu's west market, where the day's catch and seasonal produce fill the lanes from early morning.
Seosijang is where Yeosu buys its seafood. Stalls of live shellfish, dried fish and gat kimchi fill the lanes from dawn, and the surrounding alleys hide the small restaurants locals use for grilled fish and seasonal set meals.
Jeollanam-do's food is closely connected to the land and sea. Explore lively markets, seasonal ingredients, fresh seafood and generous local tables.
