Jungang night market — Attraction in Gyeongju-si

We enjoyed eating at the night market, but keep in mind it's really just a little corner of the main market, which was almost all closed by the time we arrived on a Sunday evening. At first we were intimidated by the stalls with their signs in Korean over grills of mystery meats, but some shameless Google Lens translating soon sorted that out for us and we ended up having a really fun time.
