Editor’s Tip

I strongly recommend avoiding rush hour. Between 7:00–9:00 AM and 5:00–8:00 PM, buses can be extremely crowded.
You might experience what feels like chaos, and it’s not ideal for sightseeing.
The best time to ride is generally after 10:00 AM, especially between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM, when traffic and passenger volume are lighter.

One important thing to remember: in Seoul’s fare system, transferring to another bus with the same route number does not qualify as a transfer. You won’t receive the transfer discount if you board the same numbered line again, so plan accordingly.

110A Bus

“Connecting the Past and the Present”

Bus 110 operates in two variations — 110A and 110B — running in clockwise and counterclockwise loops respectively.
The route begins near Segumjeong, a historic site from the late Joseon Dynasty (designated as Seoul Tangible Cultural Heritage No. 4), and passes through some of today’s most popular “hot spots” before returning to its final stop in Jeongneung.

It’s a route that naturally links Seoul’s historical roots with its modern cultural districts.

Overview

• Course : 36.9 km
• In the case of Route 110A, it does not use the dedicated central bus-only lanes at any point along the route.
• In Jeongneung-dong, the two routes overlap, so you need to check the destination sign carefully before boarding. Transfers between the A and B routes are possible.

Itaewon
A multicultural district filled with international restaurants, shopping streets, clubs, and independent fashion stores. One of the most diverse areas in Seoul.

Editor’s Comment

Many tourists come here to shop for souvenirs and clothing. Locals, however, tend to visit more for the food than for fashion. The area offers an impressive range of international cuisine — Turkish, Greek, Thai, Indian, Vietnamese, and many more.
If you’ve been traveling in Korea for a while and start craving something closer to home, this is likely where you’ll end up.

Noksapyeong Station
Gateway to Gyeongridan-gil (once a trendy street, now quieter) and Haebangchon, which remains popular for its independent cafés, wine bars, and rooftop spots.

Editor’s Tip

At the entrance to Gyeongridan-gil, you’ll find a pedestrian overpass. If you walk up, you’ll get a beautiful view of N Seoul Tower — it’s a well-known photo spot and definitely worth a quick stop if you’re nearby.

Haebangchon is filled with stylish, “fancy” restaurants and many places that cater to international visitors, so ordering in English is usually not a problem. There’s a French restaurant in Haebangchon that I personally like, and I find myself going back there from time to time.

Samgakji Station
Location of the War Memorial of Korea, a large museum dedicated to Korean military history.
