Frequently Asked Questions

Q. I land after midnight — how do I get to the Konkuk University area?

Night bus N6703 runs after the regular buses stop. N6703 leaves T1 at 23:40, 00:20, 01:05, 01:45, 03:50 and 04:50 and stops at Seorae Village Entrance · Samseong Stn. (Grand Intercon Parnas Hotel) · Lotte World Hotel Jamsil · Dongseoul Bus Terminal (Gangbyeon Stn) · Gwangnaru Station. Buy the N6703 ticket first at a ticket counter or kiosk (T1 1st floor, T2 B1) before boarding at the airport. Outside those times a taxi is the realistic option — see the fare estimate on this page.

Q. What's the best route to Konkuk's hotel cluster?

By rail, take the all-stop AREX to Hongik University Station and transfer once to Line 2 for Konkuk University Station — about 86 minutes, traffic-proof. Buses 6013 and 6705 are the direct road options.

Q. Should I stay near Konkuk for airport access?

It's decent rather than great — one Line 2 transfer or a direct bus, but on the far side of the loop. If airport convenience is your top priority, districts along the AREX line itself connect faster.
