This study investigated the effect of different use patterns of the traditional market and mall types on local attachment and community. As a result of the analysis, first, it was found that the frequency of visits to commercial facilities had a positive effect on exchanges with residents and local attachment when using traditional markets. Second, the influence of the exchange between residents on the local community and the influence of local attachment on the local community were significant in all three sites. Third, the indirect effect of visit frequency on local community was significant in Yongdap-dong and Haengdang-dong. This shows that exchanges between residents and interest in the region play a role as a mediating factor that positively influences the local community according to the frequency of visiting commercial facilities. These results show that the traditional market and small commercial space can increase the frequency of visit and become an efficient place for local attachment and the local community.
