The biggest fish market in Korea sits right on the water. In the stalls, tubs overflow with fish, shellfish and octopus while the sellers call out nonstop. In the second-floor hall your pick from the ground floor is sliced into raw fish on the spot. Grilled hagfish and cold fish soup, both Busan staples, are all in one place. Eating at an outdoor stall at sunset by the quay is just as good.
