What $14 Gets You at Seoul’s Most AUTHENTIC Market! (Gyeongdong Market)

Today, I'm heading to Gyeongdong Market, one of the largest and most traditional markets in South Korea. While tourists flock to Gwangjang, I'm keeping it local to see just how much 20,000 Won can actually buy you in 2026. From medicinal herbs and fresh produce to some of the cheapest (and tastiest) street food in the city, follow along as we navigate the crowded stalls, meet the friendly locals, and try to stretch our budget to the limit!
