Namdaemun Market, the nation's largest traditional market, will be refurbished to cater to foreign visitors.


According to Jung District Office in Seoul, Thursday, a section at the market will be designated as "K-food street," where visitors can experience Korean food, mainly street snacks. The list of food includes deep fried vegetable and fish, "sundae" (Korean sausage stuffed with various ingredients), "tteokbokki" (rice cakes in red chili sauce), "hotteok" (sweet pancake), "gimbap" (rice rolled in dried seaweed), fried chicken with sweet sauce, fish cake, chicken and beer, among others.

"We are confident the project will make Namdaemun a major tourist attraction for cuisine," an official from the district office said.

He said they hope the project will also prompt the Korean food industry to help turn Namdaemun into another tourist attraction for food similar to Gwangjang Market, which has become a hot place for tourists seeking traditional Korean snacks.

Part of the market will become a night market like Temple Street Market in Hong Kong and Shilin Market in Taiwan.

"For example, we know Namdaemun market is famous for children's clothes. Now, people will be able to buy them at the night market," the official said. "We would like for the largest traditional market in Korea to gain more business with this project."

On Thursday, the district office, the Seoul Metropolitan Government, Shinsegae Department Store, Namdaemum Merchants' Association and other partners celebrated the launch of the project. It will take three years to complete, and cost 6.5 billion won.

Shinsegae came onboard with 1.5 billion won in support. The company will be in charge of improving infrastructure and will renovate public restrooms at the market, as well as build a rest lounge and a K-pop concert hall at the MESA building within the market.

"We'll develop Namdaemun as one of Seoul's major attractions, such as the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul," the official said.

The history of Namdaemun Market goes back to the 15th century. Under the reign of King Taejong, the marketplace was managed by the government. During the Japanese colonial period, Japan took the control of the market, but the merchants gained management in 1945 after liberation.
