Overview
Jeonju Nambu Market is a century-old traditional market next to the Hanok Village, a lively market of food and daily goods by day that transforms entirely at night. The second-floor Youth Mall gathers cafes and workshops run by young merchants, and the weekend-evening Nambu Night Market is hugely popular with travelers for street food from around the world. Admission is free, with the night market usually operating Friday and Saturday evenings. It's walkable from the Hanok Village.
Travel Tips
The night market runs only Friday and Saturday evenings, so check your schedule. Don't miss the quirky Youth Mall cafes.
