Seoul and the Subway

For some reasons I think the 1st thing to write about Seoul is the subway...its not that complicated like the one in Japan, I think.. but at last I managed to understand the bits and pieces, how not to get lost in the subway..so here it goes.
  • Make sure you have the latest map.  This is so important. I'm not sure how much updated the subway system in Seoul, but we did compare, and it just to make sure you are stopping at nearest station to the places you intend to go.
  • Make sure you understand the map..it will take sometime, but just go with the color or in some of the map they will have a number code~whether it is Line1, Line 2 etc
  • Credit enough money in T-Money, so you don't feel embarrassed the gate did not open ^_^ (By the way the T-Money can be use in the bus and some of the taxi too-so convenient!)
  • Make sure you give way to other people to pass if you walk in a group or kind of walk a bit slow ..same as in KL, stay at the right side (if I'm not mistaken) of the escalator so other people can walk through..(although sometimes ppl in KL forgot abt this, which kind of annoying thing to me too..sobs)
  • The most important thing is~KNOW WHICH EXIT TO GO!! lol..yeah, this happen to us, unless you really know all about the subway, just make sure you know which exit to go, or else be brave enough to go 180' degrees to arrived at the place you wanted  to go..

what happens to our map at the end of our trip ^_^

i really like this escalator a lot!! teruja hehe..feels like in airport!




and quite important too, never ever sit in the subway train, in the place assigned for old/disabled/pregnant lady etc..or else be prepared to be 'sergah' by the ahjumma or ahjussi there..hehs, this was never happens to us, but yeah we get this from someone's advise and from our observations, this happens..
