They don’t but I think there may have been talk about starting a car like that on the busiest line. It’s such a great idea!

Haha, this sounds like the metro in Mexico City. All the front cars of the metro here are for women and children only too – Does the subway in Seoul have anything like that?

LOL, I’m usually on the subway alone so I don’t get shushed often, luckily.

I rarely use the buses because they scare me and the subway is so easy!

It is so wonderful. And on time. Better than any other I’ve experienced. And yeah, I agree, I’d never heard of numbering exits either and it makes finding things so much easier!

I totally miss the efficiency of the Seoul subway system! It was so easy to go anywhere I needed via the subway and/or the bus. I also loved that people give directions via subway exits (ex. Hongdae exit #9). I hadn’t heard of numbering exits before South Korea.

Oh Amanda just IGNORE those people that shush you for speaking at a normal volume. I ignore them – it’s a subway, not a bedroom.

The Jihacheol app however is wonderful! I use it when I’m in Seoul. You’re right about the T-Money card too, so useful!

The subway really is nothing to be scared of and it’s so simple to get from A to B. I use the subway over the bus anytime. The buses are nightmarish.
