Among world cities, Seoul has one of the most extensive subway facilities. The city is conveniently linked by subways, taxis and buses. The subways, though a little more complicated than that of Singapore's due to the size of Seoul, are the best mode of transport to get you around the city. The web of subway lines connecting every corner of Seoul and the surrounding area allows you to have a peek at the life of Seoulites in a low cost and convenient way. The subway is not just a means of transportation but another tool to help make your life is Seoul more enjoyable.
All lines are color-coded, and when you are armed with just a map of Seoul, you should be able find your way around the tourist attractions. In addition, all signs are provided in English as well, and announcements on the trains are also made in English.

Seoul is NOT some backward, Third World city. In fact, its subway system compares quite favorably with those of London, Paris, or Washington. It's extremely fast, reliable, and easy to use (all signs are in Korean and English). And the price is next to nothing. Of course, it can be very crowded, especially during the afternoon rush hour.
So don't bother driving in this city; it's far more hazardous and troublesome, especially to a foreign visitor. The subway goes almost everywhere. Leave a Comment Theme: Subway/MetroWebsite: http://www.lifeinkorea.com/information/trans/subways.cfm

Seoul subway is easy way to get around. All signs are in English and you can get anywhere you want to go. I'd buy a metro card and put $$ on it to save time lining up for tickets. It only costs about 800W each trip.. little more for longer hauls. If you're a group short distances are cheaper in taxi... but if there's alot of traffic- it might not be worth it.

Seouls Subway system is massive, fast, efficient and cheap.... you take a ticket from either a machine or the ticket couner. If you are visiting seoul it's probably better to just tell the ticket man what station you are going to and he will give you the appropriate ticket. You have to put that ticket through the slot and collect it again before you get on the train. and you have to do the same when you get off the train... only it won't come back to you. If the alarm sounds then you can just jump over or under the barrier.. depending on whether there are any people around. Often a staff member will come over very shortly and help you out...
