Using this route finder
This reference trip from Myeong-dong Station to Gyeongbokgung Station uses Line 4, Line 3, includes 1 transfer, and covers 5 stops. Start with the route map, then use the cards below to plan the journey.
How to read the route map
Each coloured line follows one subway line. Station nodes show the travel order; the square marks the origin, the larger dark marker marks the destination, and the double-ring marker marks a transfer. A dashed connection means changing lines at that station.
Check before you leave
Confirm the train destination and next-station display on the platform, especially on lines with branches or loops. Allow time for waiting, crowding, walking through a transfer passage, and finding the right exit. For disruptions or service changes, check the operator’s current official notices at the station or online before travelling.
How estimated time is calculated
The estimate adds published segment times where available, a fixed default for segments without a published value, and a transfer weight. It helps compare routes, but it is not a live prediction and does not include current waiting time, crowding, or service conditions.
Tips for international visitors
A rechargeable transport card is usually the simplest way to enter and leave the subway. Match the English station name shown here with the official English name on station signs, platform displays, and train information. Follow destination signs rather than relying only on a line number.
