What are the travel options between Daejon and Kwachon? What's the price & convenience for these options? Is it reasonable to do it daily or weekly?

There's no intercity terminal in Gwacheon, you'll have to take the hourly bus between Anyang (in front of Anyang train station) and Daejeon main terminal. It's a 2-hour ride costing about 10k Won.

But the really discouraging part would be moving between Anyang Terminal and Gwacheon, say, Line 4 Gwacheon metro station. It takes about 40 minutes on a regular bus even without much detour. Taking taxi would certainly cut the time short, but if you do so regularly, cumulative cab fare would without a doubt skyrocket.

Express Bus Terminal in Seoul - it's a 26 minute subway ride - line 7 two stops, transfer to line 4 and head south 6 stops to Gwacheon. If you're going to another stop in Gwacheon, it could be between 20-30 minutes from EBT.
