Daegu Chilseong Market and Byeolbyeol Sangsang Chilseong Night Market, where the night begins at the Sincheon Riverside Park

Where the 1950s Market District Meets the 2019 Sincheon Dunchi Night Market

Chilseong General Market is based on the Chilseong Market district formed since the 1950s. Buk-gu tourism information introduces this place as Daegu's largest traditional market along with Seomun Market, and explains it as a complex market where Chilseong Market, Cheong-gwa Market, Samsung Market, Gyeongmyeong Market, Bukmun Market, Neunggeum Market, Chilseong-won Market, Gagu Market, Daeseong Market, and Kkot Market are connected.

The Byeolbyeolsangsang Chilseong Night Market opened in November 2019 on the Sincheon Dunchi (riverside) of this local market district. The market area, where you can shop for groceries and explore food alleys during the day, and the riverside space, where you can enjoy instant food and performances in the evening, have different characters, so it is better to plan them as separate parts of your itinerary rather than thinking of them as the exact same spot.

Finding Pork, Chicken, and Puffed Rice Alleys around 28, Chilseong sijang-ro

The standard address for Chilseong General Market is the area of 28, Chilseong sijang-ro, Buk-gu, Daegu. For market inquiries, contact the Buk-gu Office People's Economic Department at 053-665-2651. The entire market is not a single building but a structure where several specialized markets and alleys are connected, so it is better to decide on your target items first to reduce time spent retracing your steps.

Representative items listed in the official guide include ritual items, daily necessities, vegetables, fruits, seafood, home appliances, and flower wholesale. The Pork Alley, Chicken Alley, and Puffed Rice Alley are also mentioned as famous alleys. If your goal is dining, it is efficient to look around the day market first to separate items you want, such as raw meat, vegetables, dried fish, and fruit, before heading to the night market.

• Market Hours: Available within the business hours of each shop

A 5-minute Walk from Exit 4 of Chilseong Market Station (Line 1) to the Night Market

Byeolbyeolsangsang Chilseong Night Market is located in the area of Sincheon Dunchi Public Parking Lot, 276-1, Chilseong-dong 1-ga, Buk-gu, Daegu. Based on the Buk-gu Office guide, which states it is about a 5-minute walk from Exit 4 of Chilseong Market Station on Daegu Metro Line 1, it is easier for first-time visitors to find the riverside destination rather than the central market alleys.

For buses, use numbers 808, Dong-gu 2, Dong-gu 3, Buk-gu 2, Buk-gu 3, Palgong 1, or Gachang 2 at the 'Chilseong Market' stop, which is about a 5-minute walk. Buses 101, 156, 306, 401, 403, 524, 618, 650, 708, 980, Gachang 2, and Express 1 also stop at the Chilseong Market stop, and in this case, it is about an 8-minute walk. For the Sinseong-gyo stop, it is guided as about an 8-minute walk after using 101, Dong-gu 2, or Buk-gu 3.

Byeolbyeolsangsang Chilseong Night Market: From 18:00 on Weekdays and until Midnight on Fri/Sat

The basic operating hours of the night market listed in the Buk-gu tourism guide are 18:00–23:00 on weekdays and 18:00–24:00 on Fridays and Saturdays, with free admission. Since the night market hours may change depending on events, seasons, and operating conditions, it is safer to reconfirm the operation status on the official website 7starnm.com/html or by calling 053-621-1986 on the day of your visit.

The official introduction lists about 60 types of food, a flea market from Friday to Sunday, daily performance programs, and a 400-seat resting space. Therefore, if visiting in a group, it is more realistic during busy hours to decide on the food to order first and then find a vacant seat after receiving the food, rather than securing a seat first.

• Weekdays: 18:00–23:00
• Friday & Saturday: 18:00–24:00
• Admission: Free

Check Performance Schedules Separately, Like the Byeolbyeolsangsang Event on April 17-19, 2026

The Byeolbyeolsangsang Chilseong Night Market event held from April 17 to 19, 2026, operated from 19:00 to 21:30 daily, with live performances and audience-participation 'Visible Radio' scheduled from 19:20 to 21:30. Since this schedule is information for a specific event that has already ended, it should not be confused with the regular night market operating hours.

At that time, performances by Chae Ui-jin and Palette on April 17, To JJ and Neodeul on April 18, and Turipkado and D2M on April 19 were announced. When visiting for the purpose of seeing performances, do not just look at the 'night market business hours,' but check the lineup for each date, the performance start time, and announcements regarding operation in case of rain separately.

Sincheon Dunchi Public Parking Lot at 1,000 Won per Hour and Space for 17 Tourist Buses

Private cars can use the paid parking lot near the entrance of the night market, and the parking fee guided by the Buk-gu Office is 1,000 won per hour. It is guided that 17 tourist buses can park in the parking lot under the Chilseong Market elevated road, so it is better for groups to plan by separating the destination from the passenger car parking area.

When visiting both the market for shopping and the night market, the recommended duration of stay is at least 2 hours and 30 minutes to 3 hours. You can divide this into 60–90 minutes for the market alleys and 90 minutes or more for moving to Sincheon Dunchi, dining at the night market, and watching performances. Since details regarding wheelchair/stroller accessibility and on-site foreign language guidance were not clearly confirmed in the official guide, it is better to inquire in advance at 053-621-1986 if needed.

• General Vehicles: Paid parking lot at the night market entrance
• Parking Fee: 1,000 won per hour
• Tourist Buses: 17 spaces in the parking lot under the Chilseong Market elevated road
