Squid Game | Baegun Market — The Dried-Fish Stall That Fed Two Houses
kevin
Baegun Market is a short covered lane off Samyang-ro 154-gil in Ssangmun-dong. Paldo Dried Seafood still sells the grilled fish Gi-hun packed in a plastic bag while Sang-woo's mother worked the counter.
VisitKorea lists the address as 36 Samyang-ro 154-gil, Dobong-gu. On screen the stall was Sang-woo's Fish. The market has been here since the 1960s. After the series landed, a small corner appeared with a Young-hee doll and the games the neighbourhood already knew: marbles, ddakji, dalgona. The fish did not change.
Walk the lane before noon. The smell is dried pollock and charcoal. That is the smell Gi-hun carried back to a house that could not afford it.
