I know there's a way but I wasn't sure how to reserve seats on long distance buses. I went to the site at http://www.kobus.co.kr/web/eng/index.jsp where I could see the schedule and how many empty seats, but I couldn't see how to actually reserve seats. Anyone know?

Go to the site:

www.theyeogiyo.com

They can help you out (for a 1000 won or something like that)

Can you go to the bus station ahead of time to buy the ticket?

I've never had a problem with oversold bus just going when I want to leave. Actually, in Sokcho, they wouldn't even let you buy tickets more than a few hours in advance.

I have bought tickets days in advance.

I have had to wait up to 2 hours to get out of Seoul on a Friday night.

I have made online reservations with my ARC and credit card, but I had to get a fluent Korean speaker to help with the process.

When I was in Gwanju, I think, I was told I could not purchase tickets at night for the next morning. They told me to come in early. It may be different depending on the kind of bus and the destination.
