Jegidong Ginseng Market : Heungwon Ginseng | Reviews

There are a lot of ginseng shops in the market.

The reason that Creatrip got in partnership with Heungwon Ginseng is that out of the many stores, ginseng and ginseng processed goods can be purchased at a lower cost.

If you certify that you are a Creatrip member, you can purchase raw ginseng and processed ginseng at a discount of 5% discount, and you can even bargain the price further. However, you must certify that you are a Creatrip member as soon as you arrive at the store.

Since you can bargain the price of ginseng and buy it at the lowest price, there are many customers who go around all of the stores in the Ginseng Market and then at last, come back to Heungwon Ginseng realizing that they are of the lowest price.

Ginseng processed products that most tourists buy are between ₩40,000 and ₩280,000,

We recommend that you make a purchase according to your shopping budget, because the price varies depending on the size.

In addition to dried ginseng, Korean red ginseng is very popular.

(Red ginseng is a type of ginseng that is steamed.)

This product is a red ginseng product that has been produced by a company that has been making red ginseng for over 75 years, and it's famous for its excellent quality.

It is recommended to purchase along with dried ginseng.

The price of fresh ginseng differs depending on the size and produced year, and since Heungwon ginseng is a wholesale market, prices of the same ginseng are different every day.

Averagely, fresh raw ginseng 300g costs about ₩ 10,000 ~ ₩ 16,000. Please note the price difference might be bigger in the summer times.

Heungwon ginseng is a reliable store that specializes in selling only ginseng. 

There are very few shops in the ginseng market where you can buy both fresh (raw) and dried (processed) ginseng. Heungwon ginseng is one of those stores where you can luckily get both!

Ginseng is great for your health!

 Certify that you are a Creatrip member and get a discount on ginseng purchase!
