It offers routes all major cities in Korea, with the recent addition of the high-speed service class trains, KTX. Arriving in Busan, walk to the front of the station and you will see Subway Line # 1. Purchase the ticket in the machines (1,100 or 1,300) and follow the signs to the subway direction you want. Buses also stop in front of the Train Station - #240 takes you to Haeundae (a very popular place to stay)

Transportation:
Take subway line 1 to stop #13, Busan Station. Follow the signs for the proper exit. You will exit into the station plaza.

The high-speed KTX train line between Busan And Seoul (the Gyeongbu Line) provides quick and easy travel between Korea's two main cities. See adjacent map.

KTX travel times between Busan and Seoul are less than 3-hours and when the fast track section between  Busan and Daejeon is complete, journey times will further reduce. One main advantage is that he KTX provides a link between city centres and so reducing travel time to and from the airports, which are often outside the city itself.

The KTX train provides a comfortable travel method and is set to become the preferred transportation of the next generation. Ticket purchasing can made via a reservation system, but should be made one week in advance.

The reservation telephone number is +82 51 1544-8545. See also http://ktx.korail.go.kr
