I've got a possibility of getting a job on the island of Incheon. I'm not familiar with the lay of the land over that way but apparently there's the mainland part of it and also an island or two, right?

My job is on the island part. That's all I know about the location.

Can somebody tell me how long it takes, and by what means is the trip, to get from Incheon to Itaewon?

It's all by subway, right?

I'm wondering how easy it'll be to come into Seoul to go dancing if I take that job.

Thanks,

don't do it!!
it takes over an hour to get from bupyeong in incheon (the main transfer station in incheon CITY) to itaewon... i'm guessing it'll take 2-3 hours for you, depending which island

actually, buses from bupyeong get you to hapjeong, where you can take the subway to itaewon. easy! and it's only 45 min.

Which Incheon island will you be on? The island with the airport might not be so bad but it would still be an hour plus bus/subway ride. Other islands may mean much longer travel.

I don't know. maybe it was in the info the guy sent me. I need to go back and look. He told me it was an hour and ten minutes to Itaewon from his school. So...........?

I might be taking a recon ride out there this weekend.

Thanks,
