Seoul Searching - Bus Schedules of Seoul

Seoul's Bus System

Bus Schedules
Buses run between certain hours, from 5 a.m. until usually until 11 p.m. but others run until 2 a.m. Bus routes run almost everywhere in Seoul. Most buses have their routes in English, Korean and Chinese characters, although some may still display their major stops in Korean. A book of all the bus routes in Seoul used to be published, but because information changed so quickly and so often, they have discontinued these books. These books were published only in Korean. Some tourist agencies will provide some of the major bus routes in English. Ask around.
