Getting there
- Main
- GTX-A Kintex Station (about 16 minutes to Seoul Station)
- Alternate
- Daehwa or Juyeop Station (Line 3) plus a 12-15 minute walk or a show-day shuttle
- Last-mile walk
- The hall sits in a big exhibition complex, so it is a 10-15 minute walk across the apron to either station
- Seoul Station -> GTX-A -> Kintex (about 16 minutes, the fast way)
- Hongdae / central Seoul -> Line 3 -> Daehwa or Juyeop -> walk or shuttle
- Daehwa -> 12-15 minute walk or the concert shuttle to the hall
- ICN -> AREX to Seoul Station -> GTX-A to Kintex
Getting home after the show
- The pinch is the walk out of the exhibition complex, not the trains. The halls are large, so give yourself 10-15 minutes to reach GTX-A Kintex Station or the Line 3 stops.
- GTX-A is the move home: it runs to Seoul Station in about 16 minutes and later than Line 3, so a central-Seoul hotel works fine for this venue. Tap in with a card that supports GTX (it costs more than the subway).
- Going cheaper on Line 3? Daehwa and Juyeop are a 12-15 minute walk, but the last Line 3 toward Seoul is roughly 23:00, so do not dawdle if the show runs long.
- A Kakao T concert shuttle is usually set up for these shows; book it in advance if you want a direct ride back rather than the walk plus transfer. Taxis queue hard right after, so walk a block out to hail one.

Bag storage
Juyeop and Daehwa on Line 3 have station lockers a short walk from the hall, and KINTEX often runs a cloakroom during big events. The nearest bookable Bounce shop is back toward Gimpo, so most fans use a station locker or store near their Seoul stay. See the luggage guide →
