is that flea market inside the old football stadium / car park now?

I went there on Wednesday and almost the whole thing had finished for the day, the stuff that was left was a bit of second hand stuff and the usual knock-off clothes.

Any idea of opening hours?

It's on the road that û��õ is on. Northwest of the stadiums as the crow flies. Don't know if it's there every day, but definitely along the road on weekends.

really? I read that they had to move it inside the stadium since Cheongyecheon was built?

Hmm, intriguing.

walk straight from exit 6 of Dongmyo station until you get to Cheonggyecheon... cross the street and you'll find one-story buildings on your left... scour that area and you'll find a couple of antiques stores within...

You're probably right. I haven't been there for awhile. Although there are lots of little garbage shops in the alleys behind that area and I'd imagine they're still there.

Dongdaemun exit six. Walk the direction you just came (humping up the subway stairs to the surface). Left and beside the stream. You'll be passing, at first, pet stores. First big street cross it.

You're still going the same direction (alongside the stream) and you'll come to some streetmarket (goods laid out). If you go left, follwing the fleamarket you'll be looking at various goods but mostly clothes and bedlinen.

Supposing you didn't do that left. And you're still along the stream. Keep going. Cross the next big street. You'll be at laid out goods now, fleamarket. Go left follwing the laid out goods on display. A road with goods on display on the road goes into the interior of this block. It goes a long way, goods along either side, and to a t-junction with goods to either side.

Sunday is the big day. The venders have jobs so most of them are out on Sunday with their goods (their day off).

Okay, hangul is not hard to learn. It takes a few hours tops. You could have learned it on the plane flight over to Korea.

Your �� should have a recycle center.

No it isn't, dumbass. Except for a few words like Seoul, Itaewon, and Pusan, it isn't easier to type it in English.


UMMMMMMMMM..........YES IT IS!!!!

and sorry dumbass, but just becasue you thnk some words are easier to type in korean, that doesnt help ENGLISH people reading on this board that dont know what the hell you typed Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

at least dumbasses like yourself coule make an effort and put it in english for newbies in korea. oh, and by the way, i can read korean, so dont bother tryin to make a lame comeback!

Perhaps you could take your own advice and write in English.

It doesn't help someone looking for ���� if I type Chongno, Jongno, Chong-ro, or Jong-ro because none of them is pronounced like ����. I have no idea what the English bastardization on the subway signs and city maps is and, if I recall correctly, it's spelled in different English ways in different places.
