Let’s take a ride on the AREX and 

get a taste of the traditional Korean market at 

Gongdeok Market, shall we? 

1. What kind of place is Gongdeok Market??

Located in Gongdeok-2-Dong, a neighborhood of Mapo-Gu, Seoul, Gongdeok Market is 

known as a specialty market with alleys filled with everything 

from Korean pancakes to pigs feet.

2. Gongdeok Market’s Source of Pride: Pig’s Feet Alley

In the pig’s feet alley, restaurants stand side-by-side 

where you can try all sorts of varieties of pig’s feet including medicinal pig’s feet, 

spicy pig’s feet, pig’s feet with chilled vegetables, etc. 

Due to it’s generous portion size and chewy texture, 

this alley is highly sought after by those getting off of work and their many co-workers. 

3. Year-Round Hot Korean Pancakes Off the Griddle

Following pig’s feet alley just a bit, 
you can find yourself at the Korean pancake alley!


Here you can discover dozens of Korean pancakes and fried foods 
such as mung-bean pancakes, vegetable pancakes, and the like.

4. The Genuine Gongdeok Market!!

Passing the vegetable pancake restaurant and going straight 
we have the Gongdeok Market.

Between many tall buildings, the old stores and alleyways radiate the antique 

atmosphere of the market.

Wherever you go, there’s nothing as fun as enjoying the sites of the market,
