Methodology

Every useful answer needs a date and an assumption.

We prioritise Seoul Metropolitan Government, Korea Tourism Organization and official operator sources. Community questions help identify confusion but do not set facts.

Fare model

“Paid journey group” means a base-fare event after eligible transfers, not every vehicle tap. Distance bands approximate the published additional-distance rule. Excluded rides remain pay as you go.

Pass optimisation

The calculator checks combinations of the 1-, 2-, 3-, 5- and 7-day visitor passes and selects the lowest price that covers the entered number of calendar days.

Updates

Sources are checked monthly and before known effective dates. Changed pages trigger review, never automatic publication. Send a correction through the corrections page.
