▲ A table full of about 20 kinds of side dishes including fish, vegetables, oysters, wild vegetables, and boiled pork, which fills up your tight pockets. This is not ‘Jeonju Korean cuisine?’ but the side dish table of Jeonju Samcheondong Makgeolli Alley. If you order just one jug of alcohol, side dishes made with seasonal food are piled up two layers, and each additional jug adds side dishes that you would only see at a Korean cuisine, such as fermented skate, marinated crab, and raw beef, so the drinking party is fun and the side dish table is exciting. This is a thorough commoner’s street created by poor women during the IMF era, targeting the common people who were struggling financially. The women who had to make a living with nothing started selling makgeolli by setting up tables and chairs in a space protected from the wind and rain. Jeonju Makgeolli Alley is a place that fills not only your hungry stomach but also your tired and empty heart. It is a story of life that is sour and sweet like a glass of makgeolli heard there. ▲ Alley of women responsible for livelihood Because of the customers’ expectations for ‘one table’, the owners of Jeonju Makgeolli Alley take on a small profit margin, make side dishes until their wrists swell, and stand all day to serve customers while suffering from arthritis. Ms. Ma Hyeon-suk, who was once a banker. When she got married and her family’s finances became difficult, she started a makgeolli business with 5 million won she saved from working as a restaurant employee. The ledger she kept every day for 12 years records the hardships of having to make dozens of side dishes every day, and contains messages of support from her overcoming mischievous customers. Makgeolli Alley is a place where businesses open and close repeatedly due to fierce competition for survival. However, there are also women who have protected the alley for over 10 years, laughing and crying with each other. The secret to their friendship, which is as close as that of sisters, is the 2 p.m. coffee time every day! They forget about the hardships of the previous day by chatting while drinking sweet coffee made by their older sister. ▲ A shelter for the weary Four friends can fill their bellies and have fun for 20,000 won, or 5,000 won per person. This is a shelter for the common people, where they can share stories while appeasing their hungry bellies! The hardships of life and even their sorrows disappear with a single glass of alcohol. An old father who raised six children by doing manual labor shares a glass of clear takju with his son-in-law and tells his story of how difficult it was as a father. This is Jeonju Makgeolli Alley, where stories ferment and become memories, where life and alcohol mature.
