Beside this site, http://bus.congnamul.com/SeoulRouteWebApp/view_english/map.jsp
are there any other bus maps? This site doens't seem to be well programmed. For example, I type in Suwon University and nothing comes up.
THanks

I'd also be interested in finding another one to replace the one the OP mentioned... that one doesn't seem to work at all in Google Chrome or Firefox... and in IE, it keeps crashing on me.

In "internet explorer" it works. I mean I can see hte map, but it doesn't search correctly. Plus a lot of the names of the subway stations are different on the map then in reality

works far better if you type the hangul for the above link. Not sure of any other decent English language sites though.....

[naturegirl321]

hm, might try that, but I can't even figure out how to get my keyboard in English, it's in Spanish not, let alone Korean.

Funnily enough, I used the map a couple years ago and it worked really well. I don't get why it's not working now.

that site can be a pain. it's annoying how you can't even search for subway station names. you have to just think of a landmark nearby that it WILL pick up and then move the map around and hit 'select area on map'

but yeah there's really no alternative...

If you have the iphone or iPod touch you can download the "Seoul Bus" application from t he application store for free..

It lists all the Seoul (including Bundang) buses by number and you just find your number or destination and as long as you have wifi signal you can get the live feed on your bus's location and eta....its great!!

go to maps.naver.com

click 빠른길찾기 (you'll see it top left under the naver sign)

In the 2 boxes, enter start point and destination (in Korean).

Click the 2nd button 대중교통

It'll tell you how to go there by public transport. It should have bus only/subway only/mixed options

Yeah Daum and Naver are better. They're more up to date as well.
You can just find the spot on the map and click and set your start and stop then sort various routes with or without the subway, etc.
