If you are looking for sheet sets, clothing materials, buttons, clothing repairs etc then this market is perfect. If you cannot find what you are looking for then your clothing is extremely unique. Very dirty in the walking areas however I am sure its organised
A great place for shopping,fabric / Korean silk , ethnic Korean wear, shoes , bags and loads of good stuff with very high quality products . People are friendly, absolutely safe to go around, use translator to communicate and subways to go around in Seoul.
Easy access through subway to main market ( Exit 8 / 4 ) , have currency exchange shops around as cards are not accepted in most places so make sure to have cash . Don’t see much of bargaining but small discount for 2-5% , need couple of day or more to go around most places in Dongdaemun. The prices are high / very expensive but socks / fabrics / hand bags / shoes are worth it. If u shop for more than 30K won and get invoice than ask for VAT refund receipt to claim at the airport.

You can find some many different accessories here! And you can make anything from phone charms to plushies to fan goods and even traditional hair pins! Try going once when you come to Korea!
Came by prior to our visit to the other markets and cafe in the area, and was unfortunately unable to see most stalls in action as it was only 10+ in the morning..
In any case, we managed to sneak in a morning coffee out of the situation and a toast too (which was really filling) - definitely recommended if you are looking for a coffee spot near the markets, Nami Coffee speaks some English and is really friendly 👍🏻

Fun place to be, with so many street food and shops to visit. Always crowded, even on weekdays.
You will find food you love here, no matter if you are a sweet toothed person or savoury snack lover.
There are also shops that sells souvenirs, branded outfit, make up, and clothes.
You will need around 2-4 hours to go around this area (eventhough me, myself found it is still not enough 😁)

The most important thing is the Korean food. It is very delicious.
