Explanation

Masan Fish Market has about 200 raw fish restaurants and aquariums, where you can find all kinds of fresh fish from premium species to mackerel and pollock, all caught from the pollution-free clean waters of the South Sea. It is a place where you can enjoy buying Masan's dried seafood and salted seafood at reasonable prices, and the Masan Fish Market Festival, which has become a representative festival of Masan, provides various attractions and participation spaces where you can taste and feel the freshness and vitality. Selected as one of CNN's Best 9 tourist attractions in Gyeongnam, Masan Fish Market upgrades customer satisfaction and happiness, and with modernized facilities such as arcades, spacious yards, and rest areas, it can be used more conveniently and is doing its best to discover trends for customer satisfaction. After the establishment of Masanchang, the Changwon magistrate placed officials and grain transport soldiers at the granary, and as villages began to form around the wharf, the market (Masan Market) started taking shape. At that time, Masan Market traded various marine products caught by fishermen as well as agricultural products, fabrics, and brassware. With the opening of Masanpo in 1899, foreign manufactured goods came in, activating the market and supporting Masan's economy. According to records in 'Mangiyoram' that there were 130 brokers (similar to today's fisheries cooperative function) in Masanpo, it can be inferred that the old Masan fish market was quite prosperous at that time. The fish market centered around the granary expanded along with the reclamation of Masan Port to the current location between Dongseo-dong Happo-ro and Haean-ro and around the fisheries cooperative. After Japan's annexation, Masan Port began to be reclaimed in 1914 with about 11,000 pyeong in the current Namseong-dong Post Office/Geukdong Wedding Hall area, and through several reclamations between 1927-1940 and the reclamation of about 67,000 pyeong of the old port between Hong Kong Bar (behind Daewoo Department Store) and the fisheries cooperative, it reached its current state. ◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm - "Decision to Leave"The market where Serae and Haejun reunite with their respective partners.
