to market, to market

I went to Dongdaemun Market last weekend, although there are a number of different markets in this area, so I'm never really sure which one I'm actually at. Although the fare at Korean markets tends to be very octopus/blood sausage heavy (I'm more of a smoked salmon and baked good kind of girl - I want to go here), they are still fun to visit - and great for people watching. Not to mention that this particular market houses Seoul's largest vintage clothing bazaar, which always makes for a great Saturday afternoon.
