Opened in 1981, Jungang Market is located in the middle of Suncheon’s old city center, making it very accessible. It is a place where shopping, gourmet food, and culture come together, with a fashion street popular with young people, a historical and traditional alley specializing in grilled small intestines, and waterfront cultural spaces by Okcheon Stream. Among them, the small intestine hot pot of Jeonwon Sikdang, run by a mother-and-son duo, is a popular and easy-to-eat dish full of spinach in a flavorful broth. If you want a simpler meal, head to Ogane Tteokbokki, which featured in the show "Running Man." The market has plenty of stuff to eat and see, full of nostalgia, with all sorts of vegetables sold by old ladies. It's a great place to pick up a bargain as well.
