"Gwangjang is one of Korea’s largest hanboks (traditional clothing) and textile markets, but it also happens to be the oldest street food market in the country, filled with food stalls boasting a wide array of dishes. See something you like? Just grab a seat and start ordering. Look out for yukhoe (Korean beef tartare with sesame oil and Asian pear) and bindaetteok (fried mung bean pancakes)." - Matty Kim
