Hello.
My name is Bongbong.
Good to meet you.
I will explain about the subway in Korea.
I am Korean.
I am writing this article using a translator.
Please understand if it's a little weird.
Korea has a large population in Seoul.
If the number of Koreans is 50 million, about 10 million people live in Seoul.
So in Korea, subways are developed around Seoul.
Korean subways are very complicated.
There are subway lines 1 to 9 in Seoul.
To travel by subway in Korea,
Don't buy a ticket at the subway station.
It is better to buy a T-money transportation card at a convenience store and use the subway.
The reason is that if you get a ticket at the subway station, you can only take the subway.
There is a 'transfer system' in Seoul, Korea.
I mean, you can use the bus and subway as one card.
You only have to pay once.
Instead, you can pay a little extra for the total distance.
This system is the pride of Seoul.
If you want to know more about Korean subways, you can visit this site.

It's too easy to buy a T-money transportation card at a convenience store.
I won't explain that part separately.
But I've never bought a subway ticket at a subway station before.
These days, Koreans rarely buy subway tickets because they pay through mobile phones, credit cards, and transportation cards.
The information below shows how to buy a subway ticket at the subway station.
Please refer to the detailed way to buy tickets on the site I told you.
This is Jamsil Station on Line 2.
Jamsil Station has an amusement park and an observatory called Seoul Sky, and there is a huge shopping mall, so many foreigners visit there.
So, there are many notices in foreign languages like this.
- [basic fare] Within 10km : 1,250KRW
These days, it is called the Metropolitan Railway System, but Koreans say it is the subway.
The Korean subway is equipped with a system called 'Screen Door' and it is installed to prevent a fall.
In Korea subway, all explanations are written in English so that Korean and English are used together.
There's an announcement in English, too.
If you have any questions about Korea, can you let me know in the comments?
Since I am Korean, I would like to introduce you if you have any questions about Korea.
Although I am not good at English, wouldn't it be a good communication if I could see Korea introduced by locals?
It's my first time writing in English like this.
So please understand even if your writing skills are not good.
Thank you.
I hope to see you again next time.
