Jagalchi Market, Fish market in Busan, South Korea.

Jagalchi Market spans multiple levels in a modern building, with additional outdoor stalls offering fresh seafood directly from local fishing boats.

The market emerged in the 1940s when women vendors began selling fresh catches from the neighboring port, developing into South Korea's primary seafood trading center.

Local women vendors, known as Jagalchi Ajumma, maintain traditional selling methods while offering customers the option to select live fish for immediate preparation.

Located at 52 Jagalchihaean-ro, the market operates from 5 AM to 10 PM daily, except for closures on the first and third Tuesdays of each month.

The market's second floor contains numerous tanks filled with living marine species, allowing customers to observe various fish before making their selection.
