Busan Cooperative Fish Market

The Busan Cooperative Fish Market (BCFM; Korean: 부산공동어시장) is the largest fish market in South Korea. It adjoins the South Harbor in Busan. More than 30% of the country's fish production passes through the market. In recent years, a large percentage of the catch has been made up of yellowtail, due to warming waters in the Sea of Japan. The market occupies an area of 166,420 m², of which about 10% is a refrigerated working area.^[1]
