Lonely Planet review for Free Market

A girl in ripped jeans selling her own hand-painted cigarette lighters; a Korean James Blunt sound-alike crooning into a microphone in front of adoring fans; hand-painted bottle tops, hand-painted suitcases, hand-painted everything; hairpins that look like fruit salad, wallets made of goat leather; a caricaturist, a knitter – all these can be found in this market, where stalls can be hired for W10,000. A similar Hope Market runs here on Sunday afternoons, but it’s smaller and has no live music.
