[Photo=Gangjin County]<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p> Maryang Port in Gangjin County has come alive again with warm spring weather and eager visitors.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> The 2026 Maryang Nolto Seafood Market, which opened on the 11th around the central breakwater of Maryang Port (152 Mihang-ro, Maryang-myeon, Gangjin County), drew steady crowds from day one. About 5,100 visitors came to the site, giving the event a strong start.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Organizers skipped a formal opening ceremony this year and focused on serving the visitors who showed up. Wind banners across the venue featured the market mascots Marangi and Sarangi, creating a bright, friendly vibe that boosted the atmosphere.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> On opening day, visitors responded enthusiastically to the deals: abalone was 40% off and dried seafood was discounted by up to 20%.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Anchored by the outdoor stage built last year, the Saturday concert kicked off with a visitor karaoke contest, then continued with guest singers Yoo Ji-na and Punggum, followed by dance and choir performances. The mix of acts delivered lively, crowd-pleasing entertainment.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Since its debut in 2015, Maryang Nolto Seafood Market has become one of Gangjin&#8217;s signature attractions\u2014by 2025 it had welcomed more than 1.12 million visitors and recorded total sales of 10.4 billion KRW (7.8 million USD), helping boost the local economy.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> This year the market will run on Saturdays through Oct. 31, with roughly 30 events planned. The venue hosts 23 booths offering restaurants, seafood sales, dried seafood, street food, and a &#8220;Grandma Market,&#8221; serving fresh seafood and a variety of eats at reasonable prices. The Ocean View Atelier (one-day classes) using the observatory caf\u00e9 will expand into monthly themed experiences so guests can enjoy something new each visit.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Marking the 500th Saturday concert in June, organizers plan to roll out richer programming, including prize giveaways and hands-on activities. During the summer, family-friendly features like an air-bounce water play area and leisure boats will be added.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> At night, an LED sea fountain and media fa\u00e7ade light up the harbor, offering a different, moodier view of Maryang Port.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> A visitor at the event said, &#8220;I spent a full day watching performances and enjoying the food with my kids. I also bought fresh seafood at fair prices, so I left very satisfied. We&#8217;ll definitely come back with friends next time.&#8221;<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/><strong>Kim Yong-gu<\/strong>, the merchants&#8217; association president, said, &#8220;We work hard to provide high-quality seafood and a pleasant environment so visitors can trust and enjoy Maryang Nolto Seafood Market. We&#8217;ll continue to develop Maryang&#8217;s unique offerings and make this a place many people want to visit.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maryang Port in
