This had been one of the most unforgettable trips I have had here in Korea. The Pyeongchang Olympics will surely be one of the most awaited events of 2018. Korea’s Traditional Market opens its doors for everyone to enjoy and explore. Visitors from all parts of the world are genuinely welcomed here as you walk along the sidewalks of the market looking for a new treat to try. Not only are the foods that must be explored but the different areas in Korea as well! It’s a sight not to miss. This awesome day was absolutely one for the books, wouldn’t you say? I hope you will also experience the joy of what Korea offers for their visitors as well as for their people.
