Dongmyo Flea Market

"If you’re on the hunt for dirt-cheap finds & don't mind getting your hands dirty, this place is your thrifting paradise. Dongmyo is open on Sundays, & trust me, you’ll find everything here — from used clothing, accessories, shoes to cameras, instruments, vinyl records, books (mostly in Korean) & even some unexpected knick-knacks & weapons. But fair warning, this spot gets super crowded on weekends, especially when the weather’s nice, so brace yourself for the hustle and bustle. Most of the ahjummas & ahjussis (older ladies and gentlemen) selling here are pretty cool, but like anywhere, there might be a few who are less than friendly. Just keep an eye out & trust your instincts. ✨ PRO TIPS! If you’re not fluent in Korean, it’s a good idea to brush up on your haggling skills and memorise numbers/prices in Korean. Better yet, bring along a friend who speaks the language to help you avoid getting scammed. For the best experience, hit the market early in the morning around 9-10 AM to avoid the crowds & score first dibs, or swing by just before closing time around 5 PM to snag those last-minute deals."

"For a unique shopping experience, visit the Dongmyo Flea Market, one of Seoul’s largest and oldest secondhand markets. Here, you’ll find everything from vintage clothing and antiques to quirky collectibles and local snacks, offering a glimpse into Seoul’s retro and budget-friendly side."
