Chinatown was created when Incheon Port was opened in 1883 and the area was designated as an extraterritoriality zone by 1884.
In the past, most stores sold goods imported from China, however, now most are encompassed with Chinese restaurants.

Currently, Chinese residents in Korea who maintain this street are the second or third generation of the early settlers, so they can not keep up with the traditional culture of the first generation, but they stick to the taste of China.
