We have some growing content from people who have been there. Still not much, compared to other locations, though.

Don't complain. At least this time there wasn't the snide prerequisite mention of the number of dog restaurants in the area.

Anseong is about twenty minutes from Cheonan, heading up the expressway to Seoul, if that helps any.

OP, in order to get there for a weekend trip in February...I believe we went to Pyeontaek station, then took fairly long bus ride. (I may not have been in Anseong proper. Don't really recall. The bus ride was 30 mins? 45 mins?)

So go to the subway website (http://www.smrt.co.kr/english_smrt/cyberstation_smrt/cyberstation.jsp) and find the station you want in Seoul, then Pyeontaek.

It's 100 mins from City Hall to the subway station, and then the bus ride on top of it.
