A flood of customers all year roundSeogwipo Maeil Olle Market

A majority of people who used to be regular patrons to traditional markets now shop online or go to large supermarkets in the neighborhood. A traditional market would remind them of the old memories of holding their parents’ hand and roaming around to shop. And it sometimes refreshes us. For adults, it’s a place of reminiscing good memories, while it’s a place of new experiences for children. Why don’t you experience the particular charm of the traditional market, full of old memories and friendliness?

Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market is a traditional market in the center of Seogwipo-si and a must-visit spot for all Jeju travelers. It used to be called Seogwipo Maeil Market, but in 2009, it was included in the Jeju Olle Route 6 and the word “olle” was added to the name to make it Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market.

Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market is the largest and the oldest permanent market in Seogwipo.  There is a flood of customers, both locals and tourists, coming in every day all year round, and it plays a pivotal role in boosting the local economy.

In the market, you will find local specialties of Jeju such as omegi-tteok (rice cake), tangerines, hallabong fruit, red tilefish, silver cutlassfish, and black pork. Offering a bunch of things to see and eat, you will lose a track of time once you start exploring.

Once you enter the market, you will see an alley of fisheries stores, greengrocers, side-dish stores, and restaurants standing side by side. There are hidden gems of eateries, and you will also find all kinds of daily necessities.

Compared to Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market, the size of Moseulpo Jungang Market is on the humble side. The visitors at the market are mostly local residents of Moseulpo, and the market is rather slow and quiet. It takes around 10 minutes to look around the market, so if you are in the area, we recommend you make a visit to the market.
