If you find yourself in a traffic jam in the middle of the night, it is likely that you are near Dongdaemun Market. The powerful appeal of Dongdaemun Market stems from the fact that you can buy everything you need at a reasonable price and in one convenient location. "Let's go to Dongdaemun" has become a buzzword among youngsters, attesting to the fact that, at long last, Dongdaemun has successfully shed its image as a cheap and crowded conventional market selling second-rate goods.
