※ This video is part of the November 24, 2021 broadcast of <People of the Seaside - Jangho Port, the Naples of the East, the Return of Golden Cod>. Jangho Port, called the Naples of the East for its beautiful coastline, rocky cliffs, and the jade-colored East Sea, not only captivates tourists with its diverse scenery throughout the year, but also becomes a place where cod pass through during the spawning season in November between late fall and early winter. This year, too, the cod, full of eggs that have come to spawn, captivate the taste buds and hands of those who visit Jangho Port. Captain Kim Won-gyu (66 years old), who has been catching cod with gill nets in Jangho Port for 40 years, goes out to catch cod with his wife and son. Cod is a heavy fish that can grow to be 90 cm in size. Although they use machines, the manual work of removing them from the nets one by one is not easy. After work, everyone warms up their tired bodies with codfish sashimi and codfish stew. Samcheok City’s famous Beongae Market attracts many customers from Seoul looking for fresh seafood. However, the price of codfish, which starts at 50,000 won per fish and can go up to 100,000 won depending on the size, is literally as expensive as gold. Codfish has been a precious fish that has been served on the king’s table since ancient times. Codfish, which is generously given from the head to the gills, the flesh, the intestines, the roe, and the testicles, is a useful fish that is eaten without waste, boiled in soup and stew, steamed in stew, and pickled with roe and pickled iris, and is treated as noble meat. In addition, codfish dried in the sea breeze is also sought out by gourmets. A small restaurant located inside Beongae Market also buys codfish right from the market and boils it upon order, and makes a sweet and refreshing raw codfish stew with only codfish meat without any special seasoning. ✔ Program name: People of the Seaside - Jangho Port, the Naples of the East, the return of the golden cod ✔ Broadcast date: 2021.11.24 #GolladyeonDocumentary #PeopleoftheSeaside #Sea #Fisherman #Fishing #Cod #Food #Fish #Seafood #Eating #Family #Human #Life #Drama
