How is to go around by Korea? We are introducing the basics of how to use public transportation in Seoul.
Just buy a T-Money, put some money, and now can explore South Korea. The average T-Money price is 3,000 won (basic card found at convenience stores) to 10,000 won (keychains, and custom buttons).
The subway basic rate in Seoul is 1,250 won. If the use of the underground passage exceeds 10K, an increase of 100 won every 5km is charged to a distance of 50km. Above 50km, the 100 won increase is done every extra 10km.
Bus: the rate is similar to subway but, depending on the distance, an additional fee may be charged, so you pass the card twice when entering and when leaving the bus.
As you can see in the video, many bus stops have an electronic display that shows time and number of next buses. Times are shown in minutes and are usually very punctual.
Taxi: the minimum fare for taxis ORANGE, WHITE, SILVER and is 3,000 won. The black taxi the minimum fare is 5,000 won. In addition, he has the most expensive mileage but it is guaranteed that the driver speaks English.
T-Money can be used for various other services in Korea, for example, universities, copiers and printers, and in some places machines of soft drinks/snacks. Besides all this, some convenience stores you can use T-MONEY credits to pay.
Unfortunately, there is no app in English to help user with bus system in South Korean. An alternative for those who can read the Korean alphabet is the Naver or Daum - links below.
