Nambu Market is one of Jeonju's old markets, beginning as a market outside the south gate during the Joseon dynasty and becoming a public market in 1905. Even today, its stalls are packed with dried seafood, vegetables, fruit, and medicinal herbs.

The Youth Mall grew out of young merchants moving into vacant second-floor shops. Small restaurants, cafes, and lifestyle shops run along the space like little alleys, giving it a completely different feel from the market's first floor.

On Friday and Saturday evenings, a night market opens along the market aisles, with food stalls lining up in a long row. Because the arcade is covered, it generally runs even on rainy days, making it an easy evening plan.

Useful tips

  • The Youth Mall is on the market's second floor, so you'll need to find the stairs from the first floor and go up.
  • The night market runs only on Friday and Saturday evenings, so plan your schedule around the day of the week.
  • Opening hours vary by shop, and many places are closed in the early part of the day.
  • Pungnammun Gate and Hanok Village are about a 10-minute walk away, so they're easy to add to the same route.
  • Some stalls take cash only, so carrying a little small cash makes things easier.
