Dongbu Market is a pretty cool place to visit or shop in Mokpo. You can find almost anything there that you would want. I took my friend Stacey there to show her a Korean market. There’s not much else to really say about it. The pictures are pretty self explanatory. You can buy dishes, socks, clothes, seafood, fruits and vegetables, baked goods, meat (including dog), and other goodies. I sometimes come here to buy plants and strawberries. I plan on doing more shopping here this year as the prices of fruits are usually cheaper than the big box stores.
The market is not too far from Home Plus. You can take several different buses there. I don’t know all the bus numbers that go there but I do know that #20 and #30 bus do go by as does #60/61 I believe. If you have a map of Mokpo, the market is located near Square No. 2.

Bus #1 also goes by there. It’s in E-Ho-Gwang-Jang (2nd square).
