For food in Sokcho, start with Dakgangjeong · ojingeo sundae. Choose one market or dining street near the day’s sightseeing instead of crossing the destination for every meal.

Ask about ingredients if you have allergies or dietary requirements; photos and translated menu names cannot confirm suitability. Check whether prices apply per person or per dish. Around busy markets, keep cash and a payment alternative, and ask permission before photographing people at work.
