DAY-OF PLAN
Fresh-food and general merchants can start, close or take holidays independently, so verify any named stall before making a dedicated trip.
Prepared-food counters do not share one menu, payment method or last order. Keep the circulation lane clear while comparing stalls.
Some merchants may close earlier. Wolhwa Street night-market events are separately scheduled and must not be treated as the daily Jungang Market timetable.
