Start Here — Welcome to Five Day Market Korea! π°π·
Hello! You've Found Us! π
Welcome to Five Day Market Korea — a blog written from a small countryside town in South Korea.
This is not your typical Korea blog.
No tourist guides. No K-pop news. Just real stories from a real Korean mill worker who lives and breathes traditional Korean life every single day.
Glad you're here. Let's get started!
πΊ️ Who We Are
I'm Heungjin (ν₯μ§κΉλΉ), a 3rd-generation traditional mill operator in rural South Korea.
Three things define this blog:
πΎ The Mill (λ°©μκ°)
Our family mill has been running for over 60 years. We make traditional Korean mill products by hand:
- λ€κΈ°λ¦ Perilla Oil
- μ°ΈκΈ°λ¦ Sesame Oil
- κ³ μΆκ°λ£¨ Red Pepper Powder
- μ°ΈκΉ¨κ°λ£¨ Sesame Powder
- λ‘ Traditional Rice Cakes
πͺ The Five Day Market (μ€μΌμ₯)
Every five days, our town hosts a traditional Korean market — one of Korea's oldest and most beautiful traditions.
I'll take you there every market day, through my eyes.
π The Noodle House (κ΅μμ§)
We're opening a traditional Korean noodle house right at the market entrance.
Coming soon! Stay tuned!
