Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

On a late Friday afternoon and evening, BIFF Square is packed with food stalls and slightly larger dining tents - the sights and smells are mouthwatering!
Here you'll find skewers with all kinds of meat and fish, dumplings for vegetarians, soups and fried fish, juices, and beer - all at extremely reasonable prices.
Why bother with a stationary restaurant when you can stroll around in the festive atmosphere and enjoy your dinner in 5-6 rounds...?

If you love Hotteok, just drop to a Hotteok Seller in front of Olive Young. The taste is sooo yummy. Even better that the one that I taste in Myeongdong.
The street food market I guess is also cheaper compare street food in Seoul. And it less crowded as well.
There are several shops and outlets if you wants to shop or buy some souvenirs. so if you have more time, I guess better to shop here than in Myeongdong.

Located near to Jagalchi Metro Station, BIFF Square is a great place to go to shop for souvenirs and have great street food. Many stalls selling Korean snacks such as tteokbokki, fish cake, sundae and mandu, all within a reasonable price. Good experience to stand by a stall to eat food in the cold weather. Recommended!

Went here on sunday afternoon and the place was crowded. Busy street with many food stalls surrounded by shops. To be honest, we were too busy sampling the foods than looking for the remnants of the film festival. Short taxi ride from the gamcheon cultural village, can combine both within 1 day. Allowed 2-3 hours to wonder around.

Went there during a rainy day, so it wasn’t happening. Went there later that night and it was much busier. Had a lot to choose from if you like street food.
Saw some long lines and had some tasty treats. See a lot of interesting things there.

Basically it’s a street market like many others. Nothing unique or particularly interesting. Had some decent food or I would have rated it 1 star. Go instead to the Jalgachi seafood market right nearby.

The feel around BIFF was like Myeongdong. But it has its own identity. The food around is so good and affordable. The stores are very colorful. Since it was in front of our hotel, I was walking in the area almost every morning and night.

Like Myeongdong Street but smaller. Not as busy as before but suppose the crowds will pick as time goes on. Every city has similar tourists shopping streets. Located near Jagalchi Market.

This is a must place to visit in Busan. The night market offers numerous of street food which is beyond imagination. It is very delicious, affordable and worth to try. BIFF Square is easy access and very near to bus and train station. Walking distance to Jagalchi Market, Busan Tower, Gukje Market and Fashion Street.

Saya inigin tahu BIFF buka jam berapa? Dan jam berapa tutup? Terimakasih
Written 27 January 2020
There are many malls, shops in this area, etc. It depends on the season. There was a typhoon when we visit so most shops close early due to transport issue.
It was tough to even get a taxi during such weather.
Otherwise, most malls closes by 10pm. For specfic malls, suggest you google directly as we visit during the day as we wanted to see the market after the cultural village.
Check before you head out is my advice,
Visit a specific area rather than just one tourist spot. This allows you to see more within a shorter period.
Knowing what you like to buy will help too cos different areas sell different items.
Do visit the local busan market...local handicrafts etc. This is unique.
Have fun!

Which of the stops on the BUTI city bus tour is nearest to Biff Square or Jagalchi fish market please? What else is of interest in this area please?
Thank you.

It is better to make your own tour, you have enough time to linger to certain place if you want. Transportation in Busan is more convenient than Seoul.
If you happen to stay at Haeundae area, it is easier to take public transportation. Do not forget to visit Haedong Yonggunsa Temple

I would suggest u directly message Olive & young store for more directions details, I don't think most of us would remember which shop available there or around the area unless they bought from the store from said store before.

I'd like to go to the Busan Film Festival this year and was wondering about hotel recommendations, preferably at least 3 star, within a mile walking distance. I'd like to be close enough to see some of the other attractions in Busan. We'll be arriving from Jeonju. Has anyone visited the film festival before who could offer suggestions?
Written 10 March 2015
Unfortunately, I haven't been to the film festival however I have been to BIFF square as well as the Jagalchi Fish Market which are within walking distance of each other. When you visit Busan I would highly recommend in order of priority: Gamcheon Culture Village, Jagalchi Fish Market, Busan Tower, and BIFF square (if you have time). Great Travels! or visit me at Buftravels!
