The search function on here wasn't functioning so I started a thread. Can anyone post a link to a good site for the city bus routes? Taking the subway to work is getting old, fast.

I am up in the northeast. Nowon/Chang dong/Junggye area.

Thanks.

Keep in mind that if you are going a long distance (or even a short one) rush hour can expand those bus times a ridiculous amount. I used to take the subway to apgujeong, 30 minutes every time. The bus, if its a clean drive is 16 minutes. Get stuck in rush hour and its 40 minutes or more.
One night I got jammed up near galleria the time between 2 stops was over 10 minutes.

I would suggest Daum if you want to go some short way.

This is the best one in English. But I've noticed it hasn't been updated for quite awhile. And I think it will only open with IE.

My k-friend showed me this awesome one in Hangeul only. I'll try to post the link later.

Daum isn't bad but it doesn't have as many options as the english one..at least that I can find.
it usually only shows the "best" result or what it considers the best result. The other one gives you tons of different routes you can try. This is handy if you're only going a couple stops from a subway line. Often there are 2 or 3 buses that go the same way for a bit and if it only shows you 1 result, you don't get to see your other choices. You might stand there in morning letting 3 perfectly good buses go by.
Daum does work in firefox though.

I guess you mean that congnamul doesnt work in Firefox. Daum is good for short distances since you can just press at the bus stops and then see which bus lines that goes there as well as their routes.

If you're using Firefox, there is an IE add-on for IE only sites.
