The Subway is the best way to get around in the City. Its fast, cheap and clean. Most tickets for one way cost around 600KRW.
Signs are in English everywhere and a voice always anounces the next station. Eat/drinking is not forbidden but Koreans (like Japanese) simply don't eat there. Leave a Comment Theme: Train

 Subway Station Signs by kiwigal_1
The best way to get from the airport to the city is also by subway. It costs 700 won and takes about an hour (taking into account track changes). Get hold of a subway map in English and you will have no trouble as all stations are signposted in Korean, English and Japanese. There is a flat fare of 600 won for most places in Seoul.

Currently, the Seoul subway system is made up of Lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Eight subway lines and a surface line of the government-run Korean National Railroad (KNR) merging with them serve Seoulites and visitors most effectively. Colored differently between lines, Seoul subway lines link the farthest parts of Seoul and its satellite cities and cross each other at various transferable stations, marked by the symbol.
In general, subway trains operate at intervals of 2.5 to 3 minutes during the morning and evening rush hours, and at intervals of 4 to 6 minutes during the non-rush hours. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

However if you are planning to ride on the subway, it will be better to avoid rush hours. It is really crowded and you wouldn't feel good about being jammed in the train -_-;. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

I must say that I am very happy with the subway system that they have. The trains are clean, fast, afforable and the coverage is extensive (from places in Seoul to the outskirt of Seoul).
Make sure that you get a copy of the "Korea Rainbow" guidebook. It shows you very clearly what are the places of interest around seoul and its outskirts, which train stop brings you closest to them and even which exit you shd take when you arrive at the station.
Korea subway lines are differentiated by the colour and number. Transfer stations are indicated clearly. It is really very user friendly. Leave a Comment Theme: Subway/Metro

Most economical method of travel in Seoul is by subway. During my travel (July 2003) the most expensive one-way subway fare was 800 won (Korean dollar) which translates into less than US 80 cents. Some pointers for those of you who are new to subways. If the subway line is end to end then the direction of travel is indicated by the destination at each end of the line. For those lines that travel in a circle (I'm sure you;ll figure this out) then the direction of travel is indicated by the next major exchange (where two or more subway lines intersect). Subways are clean and are used be majority of the city population so it is relatively safe. Leave a Comment Theme: Subway/Metro
