The high-speed Korean railway is extremely extensive and convenient for travelers first of all because South Korea is among the most modern and technologically advanced nations in Asia and the world. A bullet train service was introduced to the Korean Railway System in 2004 with KTX bullet trains. Along with the local metro system, trains in South Korea connect Seoul with major destinations in the country. As of now, KTX bullet trains will take less than 3 hours to reach the farthest point in South Korea. KTX trains are operated at speeds of 305 kilometers per hour. There are two classes of KTX trains: first class and standard class.

In South Korea, KTX trains are widely known to be the fastest. However, ITX-Saemaeul trains are not much farther behind, as they are the second fastest way to travel by rail within the country. They are classified as high-speed rail and operate at an average speed of about 165 km/h (103 mph). Trains with black and red carriages look impressive, and their onboard amenities do not disappoint either. In addition to very comfortable adjustable seats, ample legroom, generous luggage storage, and panoramic windows, passengers have access to complimentary Wi-Fi.

What makes Mugunghva trains so popular? Since regular intercity trains stop at more stations than high-speed options, they are irreplaceable if you're trying to travel to an off-the-beaten-track location. In addition, they offer a much more authentic travel experience, as well as a great opportunity for you to relax and take in the spectacular scenery of the country. There is no need to worry about the cost of tickets, as they are typically 2 times cheaper than KTX railway tickets, which makes this a much more affordable option. You can expect the most comfortable trip in Korea with the train like this one.
