About Seoul Subway
The whole Seoul Metropolitan Subway in one app — Seoul, Incheon and Gyeonggi. Live train arrivals, real published timetables, express trains and the fastest route, on a map that shows where the stations actually are.
657 stations and 24 lines, from Seoul Station, Gangnam, Hongdae and Jamsil out to Incheon Airport, Suwon, Cheonan, Chuncheon, Yeoju, Munsan and Soyosan.
The map, the stations and the timetables live on your phone, so route planning keeps working on an underground platform with no signal. Only live train positions need a connection.
A Map That Tells the Truth
Most subway maps are straightened diagrams. This one is not.
Every station sits where it really is, so you can see the Han River, and see how far apart two stations truly are. Pinch to zoom smoothly, from the whole region down to one street.
Real Timetables, Not Averages
Departure times come from the official published timetables, not from an average gap between trains. You get the actual train at the actual minute, plus the first and last train of the day.
Express and all-stop trains are shown separately, and the app tells you which one gets you there first — Line 1 express, Line 9 express and the Suin-Bundang express are all included.

Some journey times are estimated from the distance between stations, and the app says so where that is true. A few operators outside Seoul do not publish live train positions, so those stations show timetable times only.

Why is the map not a straight diagram?
Because every station sits where it really is. That way you can see the Han River and how far apart two stations truly are.
Does the app need my location?
No. It never asks for location permission.

No. No account, no name, no phone number. Saved routes and settings stay on your phone.
