Last-mile walk

Around 7–10 minutes from Olympic Park Station

• Gangnam / COEX -> Line 9 or taxi
• Jamsil -> short taxi or 1-stop logic / local bus / walk depending on exact stay
• Myeongdong -> Line 4/5 or Line 2/9 combinations
• Airport users -> AREX + transfer or airport bus/taxi, depending on luggage

Getting home after the show

• Everyone funnels the same way, from the gym toward Olympic Park Station Exit 3, so split by line to skip the worst of the crush: Line 9 riders (Gangnam and the west side) and Line 5 riders use the same station but opposite platforms, and the Line 9 side usually clears faster.
• Mongchontoseong Station (Line 8) is the back door on the far side of the park. It is a longer walk across Olympic Park, but on a sold-out night that beats queuing into the jammed Line 5 and 9 gates, and Line 8 drops you one stop from Jamsil.
• Weekends and holidays are where this station catches people out, because the board still looks busy after the trains you actually want have gone. The final Line 5 departure is 23:49 and it terminates at Gunja, still out in the east and four stops short of Wangsimni. The last one that reaches Gwanghwamun, Jongno 3-ga and Dongdaemun History and Culture Park is 23:24. For Yeouido and Mapo it is 23:03, and for the Gimpo Airport end of Line 5 it is 22:41.
• Line 9 hides the same trick. Its last weekend departure is 23:51 and it stops at Samjeon, five stops out and short of even Sports Complex. Gangnam closes at 23:36, Express Bus Terminal at 23:28 and Gimpo Airport at 23:17. That last one matters if you are sleeping near the airport, because Line 9 buys you a little over half an hour against Line 5 for the same trip.
• A weekday show is about an hour more forgiving. Line 5 still reaches central Seoul and Yeouido at 00:01, and the 00:38 that follows it only runs as far as Wangsimni. Line 9 reaches Gangnam at 00:38 and Gimpo Airport at 00:16.
• Staying in Jamsil changes the answer. Walk the park to Mongchontoseong and take Line 8 toward Garak Market: it runs until 23:49 on a weekend and 00:52 on a weekday, and that platform is far emptier than the Line 5 and 9 gates.
• Taxi apps surge right at the park gates the second it ends. Walking a few minutes out to the main road, or one stop down to Bangi Station on Line 5, usually finds a car faster than standing still at the exit.
