Danyang County hosts several traditional five-day markets, including Danyang Market, Yeongchun Market, and Maepo Market. Among them, Danyang Market is the largest. As the biggest traditional market in Danyang County, Chungcheongbuk-do, it opens every five days on dates ending in 1 and 6. While a wide variety of agricultural and marine products, daily necessities, and manufactured goods are sold, visitors can also find vegetables and beans grown by local elderly residents and wild greens gathered from Sobaeksan Mountain, offering a nostalgic taste of rural Korea. Traditional household items rarely seen in modern department stores or supermarkets, such as oil lamps, brooms, and straw bags, can also be found here. One of the market’s most popular foods is garlic dumplings, made with dough mixed with homemade garlic oil. ◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charmENHYPEN’s journey in Danyang for their show “SO SO FUN” began at this market.
