Overview

East Sea Jungang Market naturally formed after the opening of Mukho Port in 1943. Since 2001, the market has been installing rain covers and transitioning from a traditional-style market to a modern-day market equipped with a parking lot. In addition to the wide array of goods, the market also has Gui Town ("Grill Town"), attracting customers with savory cooking smell, and a youth market "Singsings."
