Hey Guys,

Does anyone know the fastest route to Migeum station from Itaewon?

It takes forrrrrrrever on the subway, and I'm assuming there is a much quicker way via a Bus/Subwau combo.

Anyone know how to do it??

Thanx!

Red bus 5500-1 from Migeum Station, heading north towards Jeongja. After the expressway get off at the first stop (Danguk Univ in Hannam dong, at Hannam o-geo-ri). A taxi to Itaewon stn from there is 1900.

In normal traffic it takes 25-30 minutes, the worst traffic I've ever been in it has taken 75 minutes, still faster than the train.

Other busses leave from the main area in Seohyun (Samsung plaza) and are #s 9407, 9001, 9401 -- any of them that say they go to Gwangwhamun. Some go visa Gangnam or Nonhyun station, thus making a few stops before Hannam dong but they are just as fast.
