Jeju Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market, Everything You Need to Know

On the southern side of Jeju Island, lies the Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market (서귀포매일올레시장). Though not as large and flashy as the Dongmun Market, I certainly wouldn’t just write it off. This market has been around since the early ’60s and personally, we have found it to have more of those traditional market vibes we love. You can tell it’s a place where locals go to shop and it just happens to have some of those touristy stalls sprinkled in there.

Aside from attending Cherry Blossom festivals, one of the most popular things to do during cherry blossom season is go to a cafe with a view.

You can judge any city by their street food. Okay, maybe that’s an overstatement. But they’re certainly a window into the place you’re visiting. There are the skewered kebabs of Chiang Mai, delicious takoyaki in Osaka, and… well, questionable fare you might find in the streets of Hollywood.
But Seoul? *Chef’s Kiss*
Here are a few of our favorites that are more than worth the price of a plane ticket. No matter where you’re coming from.

So without further ado, here’s part 2 of Everything We Ate in Yeosu.

Everything We Ate in Yeosu, South Korea – Part 1

Yeosu is an absolutely magical city with so much to see and eat that… well, we stuffed ourselves to the point of bursting. And then we ate some more.
It’s really the best compliment we can give to a city. Every restaurant had something amazing that we’d never seen before. Or maybe a beloved dish with a different interpretation we couldn’t wait to try. Or maybe something so weird and strange we just couldn’t help ourselves.
Whatever it was, we indulged. And this? This is everything we ate in Yeosu, South Korea.
