The Ddukbbang Market is Gokseong-gun's representative flea market, which started in 2016 and has been operating for eight years this year. Visitors enjoy a variety of handcrafted goods, handmade bread, and a full sensory cultural event, making it very popular among visitors.

The first half Ddukbbang Market featured the slogan "Let's hop to the Ddukbbang Market again this year" to celebrate the Year of the Rabbit. Various programs were held, including special events for visitors born in the Year of the Rabbit, busking competitions, and senior model walking shows.

In addition, in November, a retro market and a 7080 Let's Go Festival featuring a 7080s song playlist are scheduled for the 7080 generation. At the end of the year, a seller workshop is also planned to enhance the capabilities of sellers.

The Ddukbbang Market plans to survey facilities, services, and friendliness to improve visitor satisfaction. Through this, they intend to strengthen the market's advantages and improve any shortcomings.
