TRAVEL BASICS

Useful before your first ride

Use official sources

Hours, fares, closures, and visitor restrictions can change. Each guide shows its sources and verification date.

Save Korean place names

Keep a screenshot of the Korean spelling alongside the English name for signs, directions, ticket desks, and map searches.

Respect residential areas

A photogenic lane may still be someone’s home. Follow local signs, visiting hours, and privacy rules.

English guides cover Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, and Daejeon. Traditional Chinese is also available across the in-depth guides, station guides, trip plans, and seasonal and festival content.
