Renovations

Due to the emergence of large discount stores in Ulsan, the city government began a market-revival initiative in the mid-2000s to improve the infrastructure around Ulsan's traditional markets, while attempting to maintain their traditional atmosphere. The renovations for Eonyang Market finished in 2009 and included the installation of a 177-meter long arcade to keep shoppers dry in rainy weather.[2]
