After trying the in-store samples, we bought oranda and shared it in the car and at our guesthouse, and two to three days later at home the yuzu aroma and crunch were unchanged. If chicken gangjeong alone feels repetitive at Sokcho Jungang Market, Sokcho Yetgokgan is the answer for gift-worthy snacks. ## Good to know - **Location**: Unit 104, 38 Jungangsijang-ro 6-gil, Sokcho, Gangwon State - **What's sold**: Oranda, old-style cookies and gangjeong, cheonggyul (green tangerine) yakgwa, yuzu yakgwa, balloon flower root, deodeok and ginger syrups, buckwheat makgeolli, corn makgeolli, golden buckwheat chips, corn chips, cheonhyehyang juice, hallabong juice, sikhye - **Tasting**: Samples available in the shop - **Shipping**: Nationwide delivery available - **Storage**: No change in taste after two to three days; refrigeration also recommended *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* If you're looking for snacks and treats at Sokcho Jungang Market, I want to recommend Sokcho Yetgokgan. It's a great spot whether you're just browsing for a quick snack while walking through the market or looking for a gift to bring back for family or friends after your trip. They sell all kinds of cookies and oranda, so it was fun just to look around. The oranda at Sokcho Yetgokgan is crunchy but not overly sweet, so I think people of all ages could enjoy it. It's not too hard, so it works fine as a snack for elderly family members too — a treat kids and parents can enjoy together. It also pairs well with coffee or tea, so it would be great to keep at home and snack on a piece at a time. ![Oranda snack from Sokcho Yetgokgan](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-01-fqwmx-900.webp) ## Where is Sokcho Yetgokgan in Sokcho Jungang Market? The address is 38 Jungangsijang-ro 6-gil, Unit 104, Sokcho, Gangwon — just search it on Naver Maps and you'll find it right away haha. Sokcho Jungang Market has plenty of snack food, and this time I went and tried the oranda, which is great both as a gift and as a treat to munch on, and came back to share a review with you. ![Storefront of Sokcho Yetgokgan in Sokcho Jungang Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-02-ojug6-900.webp) They were also selling syrups made from doraji (balloon flower root), deodeok, and ginger, but we went for the oranda since it's easy to snack on in the car, at the accommodation, and also makes a good gift. ![Display of doraji, deodeok, and ginger syrups](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-03-1rab1-900.webp) ## Oranda for when chicken gangjeong alone gets old When you come to Sokcho Jungang Market, everyone tends to eat chicken gangjeong. But when you get tired of just chicken gangjeong, it's really nice to have other things like this to eat too. ![Oranda products displayed at Sokcho Yetgokgan](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-04-1u9w2-900.webp) Samples were available, so I tried some, and it was much more refreshing than the ones I'd had elsewhere, so I could eat several pieces without getting tired of it. It wasn't just plain sweet — it had a refreshing taste, which I liked. ![Refreshing oranda tasted as a sample](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-05-neu18-900.webp) ## What else Sokcho Yetgokgan sells: makgeolli and yakgwa They also sell buckwheat makgeolli and corn makgeolli. Picking up local products like these alongside the snacks seemed like a great idea too. ![Display of buckwheat and corn makgeolli](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-06-xfpkq-1200.webp) They also sell cheonggyul (green citrus) yakgwa and yuzu yakgwa. I liked that this shop has so many refreshing traditional treats that work well as dessert. ![Cheonggyul yakgwa and yuzu yakgwa for sale](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-07-1137t-900.webp) ## Nationwide shipping and gift box wrapping They also ship nationwide. The packaging is clean and neat, making this a great option if you're wondering what gift to bring back from a Sokcho trip. The gift sets with a variety of snacks look thoughtfully put together, and since they're practical gifts, the person receiving them can enjoy them without any burden. They work well for holidays, gifts for parents, treats for elderly relatives, or travel souvenirs for friends. ![Packaged food gift set from Sokcho Yetgokgan](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery/sokcho-market-oranda-tasting-delivery-08-1jbb4-900.webp) ## How the oranda held up two to three days later at home I packed it up in a hurry and opened it at home, and even after two to three days, the taste hadn't changed at all. Maybe because the weather was cool, it was fine even left at room temperature. Still, refrigerating it would probably be good too. The yuzu aroma is still really nice.
