A fast, unofficial Daangn (Karrot Market / 당근마켓) scraper that turns listings on daangn.com into clean, structured JSON. It works as a Daangn API alternative: give it listing URLs, a search keyword, or a neighborhood, and get back price, status, region, seller (+매너온도), images, and engagement stats.

What does Daangn Scraper do?

This Actor extracts public marketplace data from Daangn (Karrot Market) — Korea's largest hyperlocal second-hand marketplace. It has three modes:

• Detail — scrape individual listing pages by URL or ID. For 중고거래 (buy-sell) it reads Daangn's internal JSON loader directly (no browser, faster, and richer — exact view/favorite/chat counts, post time, seller review count).
• Search — keyword search within any vertical, optionally scoped to a 동네.
• Hot — popular/“hot” listings for a region.

It does not collect private user data — only what sellers have chosen to publish on a listing.

Why scrape Daangn (Karrot Market)?

• Price & market research — track second-hand prices, 시세, and demand by 동네.
• Inventory & reselling — monitor new listings and status changes (판매중 → 예약중 → 판매완료).
• Lead generation — find 동네업체 / 부동산 / 중고차 listings programmatically.

Running it on Apify adds scheduling, a REST API, integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets), monitoring, and built-in residential proxy rotation to avoid blocks — none of which you get scraping by hand.

See the Output section for a full example.

How to scrape Daangn — step by step

1. Open the Actor and pick a Mode (detail, search, or hot).
2. Detail: paste listing URLs into Start URLs (or IDs into Article IDs). Search: type a Search keyword and optionally a Region slug. Hot: enter a Region slug like 역삼동-6035.
3. (Recommended) leave Proxy on Residential.
4. Set Max items to cap the run, then click Start.
5. When it finishes, download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via the API.

A region slug looks like <동>-<regionId> (e.g. 역삼동-6035). You can copy it from the ?in= parameter in a Daangn search URL.

How much will it cost to scrape Daangn?

Cost scales with the number of listings and whether a browser is needed:

• Detail mode uses plain HTTP (no browser) — cheap and fast, so large batches of listing pages cost very little compute.
• Search / Hot render JavaScript with a headless browser, which uses more compute per page. Keep Block images/fonts/media on to cut proxy GB usage.

Use Max items / Max search pages to bound spend.

Input

See the Input tab for the full form. Key fields:

• mode — detail · search · hot
• vertical — buy-sell · realty · cars · jobs · local-profile · community · group
• startUrls / articleIds (detail), searchQuery (search), region (search/hot)
• useJsonApi — use the rich internal JSON loader for buy-sell detail pages
• proxyConfiguration — Residential recommended

Example (detail mode):

{
"mode":"detail",
"vertical":"buy-sell",
"startUrls":[{"url":"https://www.daangn.com/kr/buy-sell/rtx-3050-803909841/"}],
"useJsonApi":true,
"maxItems":50,
"proxyConfiguration":{"useApifyProxy":true,"apifyProxyGroups":["RESIDENTIAL"]}
}

Example (hot mode):

{
"mode":"hot",
"vertical":"buy-sell",
"region":"역삼동-6035",
"maxItems":100,
"proxyConfiguration":{"useApifyProxy":true,"apifyProxyGroups":["RESIDENTIAL"]}
}

Output

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. Each item is one listing:

[
{
"id":"803909841",
"title":"RTX 3050",
"price":160000,
"price_text":"160,000원",
"is_free":false,
"status":"sold",
"category":{"id":"1","name":"디지털기기"},
"region":{"name":"가경동","id":"2127","full_name":"충북 청주시 흥덕구 가경동"},
"seller":{"name":"키리토","manner_temperature":41.3,"review_count":12},
"stats":{"views":362,"favorites":2,"chats":1,"source":"json"},
"images":["https://img.kr.gcp-karroter.net/origin/article/.../_0.webp"],

"url":"https://www.daangn.com/kr/buy-sell/rtx-3050-803909841/"
}
]

Tips and advanced options

• Fastest & cheapest: use detail mode with useJsonApi: true (buy-sell).
• Search returns few/no items? Daangn gates search lists behind an anti-bot proof-of-work challenge; use detail/hot where possible, or lower concurrency.
• Avoid blocks: keep Residential proxy on and add a small Delay between detail requests. The Actor also rate-limits itself per host.
