Auntie Oiso

Their story

Jagalchi is Busan's huge seaside fish market, named for the pebble beach it stands on. She sat at a fish stall there for forty years selling mackerel and hairtail. She started reading saju for the vendors next to her with the same knack she used calling prices in finger signals at the dawn fish auction, and soon the market had a saying: "Before you open a shop, ask Auntie first." She raised three kids on that one stall. People opening or closing a shop, quitting a job to start a business, or stewing over family money come to her. Even mid-reading, she can't stop calling out to passing customers.
