About how much time am I looking at here? I assume the bus is faster? But what about rush hour?

Anyone do this by taxi regularly?

Thanks!

I live right at Nonhyeon Station. Don't know about the bus, but it is only a 4500won, 10 minute cab ride to Itaewon Station. Maybe another 2 minutes and 1000 won to Noksapyeong Station. Make sure the driver goes over the Hannam Bridge. If you take the Banpo Bridge, it ends up taking longer and being more expensive because you have to skirt the base.

I'm pretty sure there's one bus that goes there. Catch it across the street from Istanbul.

The 401 bus goes from Haebangchon directly to Nonhyeon-dong (Nonhyeon stn, Hakdong stn) in about 20-25 minutes. Morning rush-hour isn't an issue. Evening rush-hour isn't an issue with the exception of an excruciatingly slow stretch between Hakdong stn to Nonhyeon stn.

Doesn't the 23 bus still go toward the Hannam bridge transfer point?
If so, almost every 400-series bus going across the bridge would stop in Nonhyun-dong on its way through Gangnam to Yangjae......at least thats how I remember it.......been a while.......

As mentioned, 401 bus is the best route...

I was thinking the 406 actually. There could be more than one.
