I usually get a cab from Suwon Station.

Let a coworker write down the addy in korean and show it to the driver.

Cost me about 3000W/each way.

No need to waste money on a taxi.

From Suwon station get bus number 92 or 11 (at the bus stops opposite the Tourist Info Centre).
Get off at Gu-oon sageori.

The closest subway station is Hwaseo and I think the 92 goes to Immigration past there.

Wow, FREE bus service in Suwon?

Well, what i meant was to use the most convenient way to get to immi from Suwon Station. No need to wait in the cold for a Bus and only saving a few wons......

A bus costs less than 1000won each way; so yeah, I'd rather spend the 4000won I "saved" by not taking a taxi on something else.

I'm sorry Ek. i'm used to pay 1400W for each fare, so to me its half price of a cab, but on the other hand its so cold now.....i'd rather jump into a cab and get dropped off in front of immi instead of walking and waiting for a crowded bus.
Oh well, we all have our own methods.

You can get off at Sungkyunkwan Univ. Station, then walk south for about 15 minutes. It's in the little neighborhood on the northeast corner of the big intersection where E-Mart is.

Or you can get off at Hwaseo Station and walk down the main street west until you come to the same E-Mart intersection.

On the map it looks like the two stations are equidistant from the office.
