This study aims to identify and document the traditional knowledge of medicinal plants traded in the Hamyang traditional market of Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea. Data were collected through interviews, informal meetings, and observations using semi-structured questionnaires. Interviews were conducted with 13 informants, and the data were quantitatively analyzed using use value (UV), informant consensus factor (ICF), fidelity level (FL), and network analysis (NA). A total of 68 medicinal plant species, belonging to 63 genera and 39 families, were reported. The most frequently cited families were Araliaceae (15 mentions) and Rhamnaceae (14 mentions). The most commonly used plant parts were roots (38.51%), followed by stems (24.14%). The most common mode of preparation was decoction (35.00%). The highest value of the informant consensus factor (ICF) was observed for liver complaints (0.71), while the lowest values were recorded for birth-related disorders, skin diseases and disorders, and cuts and wounds (each 0.00). In the study, fidelity levels (FL) ranged from 12.5% to 100%, and use values (UV) ranged from 0.08 to 0.62. In the network analysis, the most significant medicinal plants were Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus (Rupr. & Maxim.) S.Y.Hu and Berchemia berchemiaefolia (Makino) Koidz., while the most significant disease was gastrointestinal disorder. The results of this study provide basic data for the conservation of traditional knowledge and medicinal plants, support further research for the development of new drugs, and contribute to the revitalization of the local economy.
