Information Introduction Bosu-dong Book Street has a unique background
It was formed after the independence of Korea (August 15) as a residential area in the empty place where the previous Gukje Market was demolished
People started selling the books Japanese left behind, and later on, when it became a private area, book sellers moved to the current place to sell their books
When Busan became the provisional capital during the Korean War, refugees brought and sold their precious books for a living
As time went by, professors and students came to the alley and started purchasing books, contributing to the build up of the current book street
Once, used books were gathered in the alley and rare books could be found
Thanks to this, more temporary buildings were formed
At that time, about 70 books stores were available for students to sell and buy used books
In the early 60’s when the publication culture was not yet settled down, many students and educated people had to sell their books and then buy secondhand books or magazines
After going through this time, the Bosu-dong Book Street became a famous book street throughout the nation
The prices of books are scaled according to the conditions of the book or bargaining
