Muju Firefly Market | ショッピング情報 | K-Travel Mate

Muju Firefly Market is a traditional five-day market and a permanent traditional market held on the 1st and 6th of every month. The predecessor, Muju Market, was a traditional market formed around 1890 on the site of the Muju-gun government office, now where the post office stands. In 1919, it was a historical site of the March 1st Independence Movement. After the Korean War, when the entire market building burned down, a natural five-day market formed around Muju Bridge, and in 1950 it moved to its current location in Eupnae-ri, Muju-eup. This place is an inland hub with convenient transportation connecting Gyeongsang-do, Chungcheong-do, and Jeolla-do, offering clean food products (wild greens, medicinal herbs, meoru berries, apples, walnuts, deodeok root, various vegetables), eel porridge, sundae (blood sausage), market-style gukbap (soup with rice), noodles, and many attractions.
