Here's a stall selling various items of clothing for kids. I found cool military outfits for my boys in one of these stalls.
I adore the cute animal pillows in this stall. I was going to get one of the crab pillows but the $7 price made me put it back. Eeek!
More veggies for sale. The yellow and green pile you see are leeks piled waist-high. A bundle of leeks sell for about $1 to $2 here.
A snack stand, well more like a drinking stand, sells various dishes for accompaniment to soju (korean alcohol like japanese sake) and maekkoli (traditional rice wine). I believe these are pig skin, pig trotters and chicken feet marinated in gochujang sauce (red pepper paste).
There are also military outfit/tools stalls like this. I got my replacement Swiss Knife here (my original got stolen back in Manila).
Sun hats and visors abound on this stall. Usually elderly women and married ones prefer these type of headgear (I'll tell you more about this on the following posts).
Remember the gochujang & gochucaroo stuff I keep posting awhile back? Well here are bags of where they get that stuff. Dried red peppers waiting to be ground up into powder and made into red pepper paste.
Another snack stand, this time selling blood sausages called "sundaeguk". Usually this sausages are sliced and served with sliced steamed offal.
These are rice crackers. I'll show you how it is done.
See this gizmo? It heats up and puffs up rice kernels and then spits out this perfectly shaped rice cracker. A pack sells for 2 bucks and can keep you happy chewing and crunching the whole afternoon.
Well this ends my report on the street market of Janghowon. I'll post more pics when I find something new and unusual in our weekly street affair. :)
