Baengnyeon Market

A neighborhood alley-style traditional market in Gangbuk-gu, Seoul, centered around Hancheon-ro 144-gil. It is part of Seoul's current traditional-market network and hosts recurring food, night-market and cultural programs.

Why it matters now

On October 9, 2026, the market hosts the third-season Baegya Night Market festival from 16:00 to 21:00 with food stalls, local musicians, family activities and prize events.

Why go

It offers a more local, neighborhood-scale market experience in northern Seoul, with everyday food shopping and periodic night-market programming rather than a tourist-only format.
