At Gwangju Shinsegae, customers can find gwamegi, a winter delicacy. Gwamegi, which is dried in the cold wind, is at its best in flavor from this month through February of next year.


Oysters, often called the "milk of the sea," are also in season. The food hall at Gwangju Shinsegae offers domestically produced bagged oysters and cup oysters. These oysters are pre-cleaned, making them easy to prepare for dishes such as oyster pancakes or oyster salad.



As the weather gets colder, cockles become plumper as they prepare for winter, and are also available. Customers can also purchase blood cockles, which are characterized by their reddish shells.
