🌟 It’s Market Day at the 4/9! 🌟
Just a short walk or cab ride from the Osan AB Main Gate, this vibrant open-air market is brimming with fresh seasonal produce at amazing prices, household essentials, and plenty of treats to try. The 4/9 shares a footprint with the Songtan Market, a traditional market open daily, but you'll find the most vendors, snacks, and selections on days that end in "4" and "9" (like today!) 🛍️

🚨 Remember! Big Box Stores Are Closed TOMORROW! 🚨

🛒 Planning a Costco, EMart, or HomePlus run? Heads up! Big Box type stores typically CLOSE on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month in Korea to support small businesses and local markets. Sometimes they get permission to close another day (there really IS a waiver for everything 😂), often the following Wednesday. Not sure? Before you go, 🔎 check Naver!

✅ Closed days/times will be in RED 🔴
✅ The topmost day/time shown is always TODAY
(Or contact 1330, the 24/7 Korea Tourism Organization - VisitKorea hotline and they'll check too!)

It's a great chance to explore a local "mom and pop" shop instead! 🇰🇷
