Introduction
Munmak Market, together with a nearby cattle market, had formed a large commercial area and been visited by not only the residents of Wonju but also those from other neighboring regions such as Hoengseong and Yeoju since 100 years ago. After the cattle market was closed in 1970, Munmak Market has lost its commercial supremacy as large or franchise supermarkets have opened in the area. Situated in the center of Munmak, this market functions as a major gateway connecting the capital area and Gangwon-do Province; so, it is considered to have commercial potential and future competitiveness.
