The site only works with internet explorer.

I've recently found one at travel.empas.com as well. Yahoo Korea, Naver, etc probably also have them.
Of course only in Korean, but there are bus routes for every part of the country (intercity as well as local) and diagrams of the routes and everything.
Very impressive. |

Why don't you just ask your coworkers? I am sure some of them either live in your city or travel by bus to work.

If you are outside of Seoul, remember to dial "02" before you dial the "1330".
Here is a link to an English web site for bus routes...it can be a little tricky to figure out at first, but it's very helpful.
If you live outside of Seoul, you must find the stop you need on the map itself first and select the location from the map. Typing it in the search field will not work.
...if you need help figuring the site out, pm me and I will send you more detailed instructions.

Just get on a bus and you will discover where it goes. Life's all about the journey, not the destination.*
*Caveat: Probably not really a good idea. But getting on random buses is a fun way to kill an afternoon. |

Most of the red/orange buses go to Seoul. Many of them have the end destinations in English and a full list of stops written in Hangul.
Lots of them stop at/near Ori station and some of them stop at Migum.
Most of them are 4 digit numbers like 9401, 5500, 1500-2. |

Go to www.english.seoul.go.kr and click on 'Bus Map'.
Just find your departure point (ie. Migeum) and then destination.
Its really easy to use and Ive found it very helpful.
I dont think this link will work. I dont know how to on this forum. |
