Jukdo market in Pohang

on my last day in Pohang we visited the largest market, the Jukdo market, which is full of completely random stuff:

and loads of fresh foods:

and random men delivering stuff on bicycles:

addictive rice and corn snacks!

a woman shopping in her beautiful Korean traditional dress, Hanbok

and some exquisite beans:

and chilli peppers. just looking at them makes my eyes, mouth AND nose water

this stall sells pumkin and red bean porridge and some other noodle dishes, and we're an old regular.

the lady who runs this stall is SO generous she always gives us so much food for free. and that day she served us four bowls of noodle soup and two kinds of kimchi all free of charge.

People in Pohang are extremely generous. When you buy something they'll give you double the amount of what you order. In less than 50,000won (USD$50) we were able to buy 4 different kinds of vegetables and pickles, and about 8L(yes, 8 Litres) of pumpkin and red bean porridge which is still sitting in my fridge, and some rice cakes.


WADDA BARGAIN!
