A place where you can meet the sea in the middle of Seoul, far from the coast. Noryangjin Fish Market is located at Noryangjin Station on Subway Lines 1 and 9. Seafood from all over the country gathers here and is transported to markets nationwide through auction. Seafood from each production area comes together in one place. For Seoul residents who cannot see the sea, Noryangjin Fish Market is a place where they can fully enjoy the taste of the ocean. It is also the largest ‘fish shop’ and ‘sashimi restaurant’ in Seoul. While the early morning hours from 1 to 4 a.m., when auctions usually take place, are for wholesale vendors, lunchtime, dinnertime, and even late at night are busy with customers looking for fresh sashimi ingredients. It is only natural that many people visit, since they can enjoy the pleasure of eating sashimi on the spot with fish they selected themselves in the middle of Seoul. In addition, the generous spirit of giving extra is another charm of Noryangjin Fish Market.
