Just another goverment supported campaign vid. Korea's full of them.

I learned that it's alright to stretch out and take a nap on the seats.



The video is toooooooo long.

Might be a good English lesson for public schools, however.


Seoul Subway Song
I�ve been all around the world and ridden many a subway train.
But only one�s so near-perfect, I can hardly complain It�s not in New York, or London, or Tokyo,
hardly miss them, It�s the Seoul Metropolitan Subway System!
It�s really simple for people who hop in from overseas.
With train announcements in English, Japanese, and Chinese.
You swipe your card here, for instance, then you pay by the distance.
If you get some resistance, you can ask for assistance.
You got your handles, got your dangles, got your elderly seats.
There�s a place for your baggage and a place for your feet.
Gaps are problems no more because of sliding screen doors.
And illuminated boards inform you moments before you board.
Rush hour is crush hour�cause they pack it in tight.
The trains start up at 5 am and service cuts off at midnight.
And the answer when you transfer and don�t wanna get it wrong�
Is to wait for the the song (the song, the song). Here it comes . . .
Line 1 was first, so it�s a bit old and slow, But hey, it goes out to Incheon, Suwon, and Gyeonggido.
Line 2�s a circular path, the world�s largest on track.
So you can get drunk and pass out and still make it back.
Line 3 can take you to Ilsan, Insadong, Apkujeong, and more.
While Myeongdong, Dongdaemun, and Daehangro comprise line 4.
Line 5 covers such distance.
