If you use the bus to and from Seoul frequently, you may
find it worthwhile to purchase a Seoul Multi Trans Card
(Seoul Gyotong Card). They can be purchased at branches
of Woori Bank in Seoul and at kiosks near bus stops. The
card is rechargeable at any subway station or bus kiosk.
To
access the subway or the train, you must go to Suwon Station.
The entrance to the subway and train station is in the same
building but is separated. Currently, the Suwon subway line
is part of the Dark Blue line (line #1) system which connects
to downtown Seoul, Seoul Station and the Blue subway line. However,
Suwon Station is quit far from Kyung Hee University, and it
is recommend that you take the bus into Seoul and connect to
the subway there.
Train service to and from Suwon is some of
the best in Korea. All trains going to and from Seoul pass
through Suwon Station. You can buy tickets for Daejeon, Daegu,
Busan, Gwangju, Mokpo, and Yeosuevery 20 to 60 minutes. Such
destinations as Ulsan, Pohang, Gyeongu, and Masan offer trains
two or three times daily. Tickets can be bought at the station
or through the travel agency on campus. If you find you will
use the train on a regular basis, you can join the Korail
Club for 20,000 won at any train station. Membership gives
you access to the online reservation service at http://www.barota.com,
where you can make reservations up to 30 days in advance.
However, you will need to read Korean in order to make reservations.
The
INCHEON International Airport (IIA), in the city of INCHEON,
is the biggest and main international airport in Korea. It is
about a 80-minute car ride to Kyung Hee University (Global Campus)
from there. It costs about U$60 for a regular taxi and U$100
for deluxe (black) taxi. All fares are payable in Korean Won
only. Taxi fares from INCHEON International Airport to Kyung
Hee University (Global Campus) are quite expensive. Since subways
are not directly connected to the INCHEON Airport yet, we recommend
taking the Limousine Bus from the airport and transferring to
a taxi at a bus stop(캐슬호텔, Castle Hotel) near the University.
It costs about U$12 for the Limousine Bus. Please refer to the
following list of possible transportation routes to Kyung Hee
University (Global Campus). For more information on transportation
from the airport to downtown Suwon, please visit the IIA website
