The Busan Cooperative Fish Market, or '''BCFM''', is the largest fish market in South Korea . It adjoins the South Harbor in Busan . More than 30% of the country's fish production passes through the market. In recent years, a large percentage of the catch has been made up of Yellowtail , due to warming waters in the Sea Of Japan (East Sea). The market takes up 64,257 m², of which about 10% is a refrigerated working area.

The market first opened on November 1, 1963 , at the present-day site of the Busan International Ferry Terminal. It moved to its present location in 1973.
