Seoul, South Korea #2: T-Money & Girls Generation Hostel (Part 1)

We arrived at Incheon International Airport around 8:25am (Malaysia time: 7:25am).

First thing that we do when we arrived is to buy T-Money card. It is essential to have it. More like TouchNGo card here. You can use it to pay for train fare, bus fare or your goods at conveniences store like 7Eleven, GS25, and CU (Previously known as Family Mart). You can buy it for KRW3,000 per card.

The card is empty and we reload it using reload machine in front of train station. Now, off we go to Girls Generation Hostel!


Girls Generation Hostel located near Exit 7, Euljiro 3-ga subway station. It will take around 1 hour 20 minute from Incheon International Airport station and cost KRW3,950 if you pay using your T-Money.

From Incheon International Airport Station, we have to change to Line 2 at Hongdae station. Since Euljiro 3-ga is available in Line 2 or Line 3 and then exit at Exit No. 7.

Tips:
Use Naver Map to plan your journey and estimate the cost. Other blog wrote (in Malay language) about Naver Map too.

Expense:
1. T-Money: KRW3,000
2. Reload T-Money: KRW40,000
