Introduction
Busan International Market is a large and historic traditional market. Since the Korean War in 1950, people have been engaging in commercial activities here, leading to the development of the market. Similar to Seoul's largest Namdaemun traditional market, Busan International Market offers a wide range of new and used goods for wholesale and retail. Therefore, both wholesalers and ordinary consumers can find their desired products at affordable prices. Particularly after the war, the market gained a reputation for circulating US military supplies and other imported goods throughout the country. In addition, famous shopping destinations in Busan such as Jalgachi Market, Gukje Market, and Nampo-dong are located near Busan International Market.
