Coming up to Seoul from Gwangju tomorrow.

How much would a taxi cost to Itaewon from the main bus terminal?

And how much would the subway be?

thanks in advance for help/answers Smile

Gangnam express bus terminal? Itaewon is kind of far, I'd say like 15,000 won taxi ride. Subway, 1,000 won.

15 000 Won? I travel from Gangnam Bus Terminal to Itaewon quite regularly and I don't think I've ever paid that much. The most I paid on a rainy Friday afternoon during peak hour traffic was maybe 10 000 (if that much)

If no traffic and everything running smoothly maybe 5000 to 7000?

Yeah maybe I'm overestimating it but it depends on traffic and which route the taxi goes. I lived in Gangnam and it cost me over 10,000 to get to Itaewon most times.

From Nambu terminal, a little further away than Gangnam, it has cost me between 9,000 and 17,000 won over the dozen times I've done it. Sometimes I do the way cheaper option of taking the subway, but I hate going underground, into crowds, making multiple connections, getting tired before I arrive.
