Seoul (pronounced /soʊl/; Korean pronunciation: [sʌ.ul]) is the capital of South Korea.
Hitchhiking out
Going east to Wonju, Gangneung, Sokcho, Odae San and Seorak San national parks
Take the subway to Daeyami on the south side of Seoul (blue line Oido direction). Walk out of Daeyami station and turn left. Keep going until you get to the busy main road with a garden centre housed in polytunnels opposite. Cross over at the pedestrian crossing and follow the main road to the right, walking under the bridge. Turn left and keep going until you reach the Gunpo tollgate. Traffic from here goes east to Wonju and Gangneung and west to Incheon.
Going south to Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju, Busan and all the rest of the country
Take the subway/metro line number 3 to Yangjae (342) station and leave on exit number 7. When you come out, there is a big road south so keep walking on it for ~30min till you reach the big crossroad with the Korean highway Nr.1 and the Yangjae IC (intersection) on your right. The spot on the ramp itself is not very good, but a few hundred meters south along the highway there is a big GS25 service station, with a lot of cars, information center and free internet access :) So stand here, make your sign (in Hangeul) and GOOD LUCK :)
- after waiting here for about 20 minutes, I stopped a BMW series 7 with some famous Korean DJ inside, giving me lift all the way to Daejeon :)
