Markets in Incheon

Sorae Fish Market is Incheon's largest seafood market, where wholesale dealers and retail stalls sell an enormous variety of fresh and dried seafood. Visitors can buy live fish, crab, octopus, or shellfish from the ground-floor market and have it prepared sashimi-style on the spot at upstairs restaurants.

Sinpo International Market is one of Incheon's oldest and most beloved traditional markets, tracing its roots to the open-port era when foreign merchants traded alongside Korean vendors. Today it is best known as the birthplace of dakgangjeong — crispy fried chicken glazed in a sweet-spicy sauce — and for its lively street-food alleys.

Bupyeong Kkangtong Night Market, Korea's first officially designated night market, fills a 200 m stretch of covered street stalls every evening with sizzling street food, craft vendors and live busking.
