Breakfast at “A Twosome Place”
Walking Around Gamcheon Culture Village
Gamcheon Culture Village is a town within Gamcheon-dong, Saha District, Busan, South Korea. The area is known for its layered streets, twisted labyrinth-like alleys, and brightly painted houses, which have been restored and enhanced in recent years to attract tourism.
Walking Around Gukje Market
Following the Korean War, refugees who fled to Busan set up stalls in order to make a living by selling smuggled or imported products, which developed into Gukje Market (gukje meaning “international” in Korean) of today. Gukje Market is one of Korea’s largest markets. The market’s alleyways are lined with stalls selling diverse goods, particularly machinery tools, kitchenware, and clothing. To the market’s right is an alleyway lined with charity stores, and to the left is Kkangtong Market.
Night Walk Around Seomyeon Area
Seomyeon is the commercial center and transportation hub in Busanjin-gu, Busan, South Korea. Seomyeon is also the most crowded area in Busan, having an average floating population of 1,000,000 a day.
