...eat as much as you wish.
With water surrounding all but one border of South Korea, fresh seafood is never far away. Often, restaurants maintain aquariums full of a selection of live creatures, to be prepared for the freshest consumption. There are also numerous fish markets throughout the country. The fish markets are trading places for both commercial and retail transactions. In Seoul, the 노량진수산시장 (Noryangjin Fishery Wholesale) is the main fish market. Here, many vendors offer a wide selection of seafood, from shellfish to octopus. These vendors will provide a somewhat negotiable price for an animal, then kill it, and have it sent to one of the many restaurants nearby. The restaurants charge a low fee for serving the 회 (raw fish), and offer beverages, side dishes, and can prepare 매운탕 (a fish based stew) with the head and tail of the fish.
