Ahyeon-dong Jeon Alley아현동 전골목

About

Compared with the long history of the market, Ahyeon-dong Jeon Alley is not especially old: of the five shops still open, the oldest opened in the early 1990s. Its history may be short, but this alley of jeon (Korean savory pancakes), which fills the traditional market with lively energy, has become an indispensable place of nostalgia. Prices are low, too, so sharing a platter of assorted jeon and some makgeolli between two people leaves you full and in good spirits. Many people come here to reflect on who they are today amid the nostalgic scenery of a traditional market, and it is also a place where the everyday lives of ordinary working people are becoming history in their own right.
