[Korea] Korea High Speed ​​Rail Ride Guide🚄

A must-see for anyone wanting to ride Korea's high-speed rail!!

High-speed rail riding tips!

If you're like me and want to ride the Korea High-Speed ​​Rail but don't know how to get on or buy tickets, this guide will make it easy!

① How to Buy Tickets
Tickets can be purchased in three ways: from ticket machines, at the counter, or online!
However, using ticket machines and counters can be difficult if you don't speak Korean. 😭
Trains are often sold out for the time you want to ride!
🌟That's why I recommend buying tickets on Trip.com!
Trip.com allows you to purchase tickets up to one month in advance! You can even specify your time and seat, which is incredibly convenient!
Also, since it's an e-ticket service, once you buy your ticket on Trip.com, all you have to do is get on!
However, they do charge a small sales commission!

② Check the time and boarding location of your desired train in front of the high-speed rail platform at Seoul Station!
The boarding location will be displayed on the electronic bulletin board about 10 minutes before your scheduled boarding time, so be sure to check!
(Only available in English or Korean! Check at a time that suits those who don't speak Korean.)

③ Head to the platform!
Korea uses a credit-based boarding system, so there are no ticket gates.
There's no ticket check required to board the train, so just head to your boarding platform and board!
(You may be asked to check your ticket on board, so be sure to keep a copy of your ticket.)

Boarding is super easy, so why not take the high-speed rail from Seoul Station and enjoy sightseeing in the local area?
