Understanding South Korea Train Ticket Prices

Train fares in South Korea vary based on the service class, route length, train type, and how far in advance you book. The prices above represent base fares per person for each available class. Economy class is always the most affordable option and is available on most South Korea trains, while upper classes such as AC Sleeper and Business offer additional comfort for longer journeys.

For overnight or long-distance routes in South Korea, sleeper classes provide berths or reclining seats. These typically cost more than seated economy but save you a night of hotel accommodation.
