Known as Busan’s modern movie district, Biff Square takes on a pivotal role as a fantastic tourist attraction stimulating the development of Korea’s film industry. Although myriad theaters have opened and closed over the years, Biff Square is the first place that comes to mind when people think of movies. A walk down this street will remind you of many international movie actors and actresses as well as directors with their hand prints on the ground. It has made valuable contributions to Busan’s newfound status as an international cultural tourist city.
Due to its location between Jagalchi Market and International Market, the transient population that comes in and out Biff square will make you immerse in the unique atmosphere of Busan.

Other street food such as Tteokbboki and dumplings will also captivate your taste buds for sure. On account of the huge influx of people, you would have to queue to taste the food but it would be worth waiting.
