Though accessibility of Wonmaru market located beside a four-lane road crossing Musimseo-ro is better than other markets, it is not functioning well because it is hidden by buffer green blocking Musimseo-ro and Wonmaru market. Buffer green was installed to prevent the pollution upon the regulation, which inhibits the market activation. Nobody had not been successful to demolish buffer green with 6 times of City Mayor elections. Closely reviewing gains and losses from demolishing buffer green, Cheongju city decided to invest 120 million won to shift the trees from buffer green (160m long), and create the pedestrian road with resting area for the residents. As a result, it was transformed into the representative resting area in Bunpyung-dong where many social events like flea market are held. According to Wonmaru merchant community, the average sales of restaurants in the market increased over 30% after removing the buffer green. However, the regulatory reform was continued. Cheongju city permitted car parking for 24 hours at both sides of the Wonmaru market upon agreement with police department because of uncrowded traffic of Musimseo-ro, which is the only one in the province.
