Nice Weather Market was even featured on episode 438 of the Korean variety show I Live Alone, where Winner’s Mino and webtoon artist Kian84 went on a camping trip together.
In the episode, Mino drove and brought Kian84 to Nice Weather Market to get some items for their trip. The first item that caught Mino’s eye was a sandwich maker suitable for outdoor use.

Nice Weather Market has a small supermarket section selling a variety of snacks, groceries, and beverageas. Notable brands include Future Vegan Club, which sells vegan snacks and ready-to-eat vegan meals.
Look closer and you’ll spot unusual items such as the Bonilla a la vista Patatas Fritas chips (KRW19,800, ~USD15.21), which is a tin of chips from Spain.
One must-buy item at Nice Weather Market is the Chestnut Jam (KRW5,000, ~USD3.84), which incidentally was the main reason why Mino made his way to the store.
Many Winner fans and avid I Live Alone watchers subsequently went down to Nice Weather Market to get their hands on the chestnut jam, so if you see one on sale at the shop, be sure to nab it before it’s gone.
