Tongin Market dates back to 1941 and was established for Japanese residents during their rule over Korea. After Korea gained independence in 1945, street vendors moved in, and now the market has over 75 stalls offering a variety of foods. Visitors can exchange 10,000 won for old coins to customize their food tray from different stalls. The market is known for snacks like Kiram-Dok-Poki, which has two flavors: one fried with oil and soy sauce, and the other with spicy red pepper flakes.
