Cods, which are in season, are being auctioned at a fish market in Geoje, S. Gyeongsang Province Wednesday morning. (Yonhap News)
Going to the docks and buying fish straight from the fishermen there is definitely a fun experience that I recommend if you like fish. Often times the fisherman’s wife is right there to cut and prepare the fish for you after the purchase.

Has anybody been to the fish market at Kŏjedo? Though a much smaller scale, does it have any of the public spectacle of Noryangjin or Tsukiji?

Hmmm, well.
Fish market for general consumers:

Fish markets for whole salers are scattered around the island. There seems to be no big fish market like 통영어(魚)시장 or 부산어시장. Only small ones are there, which are called 공판장. I found a fish market(외포공판장) dedicated to cod.

※공판장 is 共販場, which means a common-sales market. 위판장 is 委販場, a commissioned-sales market.
