There are no comparison They are the best metro system in the world. Convenient, clean, safe, automated screen doors at every station, modern, stores, restroom, price, WiFi, universal (Govt controlled not many private like Tokyo)

I visited Seoul last month and really liked their Metro. Once I figured it out I had no trouble getting around the city alone. So much better than BART in San Francisco! Very clean and efficient. I particularly liked the fact that TMONEY can be used on all transportation even cabs.

Ive been to berlin. The s and ubahn hv great connectivity. Trust me toronto is worst. The fact that in 2023 the toronto subway has no wireless service and only 2 lines says it all. Not to mention the dirty trains, high fares, safety issues lately, overcrowded..the newest train from 2009 in the toronto subway looks worst than the oldest train in the seoul metro because of its poor design..thanks thunderbay bombardier for selling toronto junk.

Thanks for the interesting video Johnny; it all makes Eglinton Station look pretty drab by comparison. Platform screen doors make so much sense when you see them in action here. Aside from the obvious of keeping riders safe from the tracks and trains, the offer more opportunities for providing information to riders such as next train arrivals, service disruptions (looking at you TTC), and even advertising. Also, they must help keep the platforms relatively cleaner by containing the dirt the trains kick up as well as reducing somewhat the noise they create.

I like how the subway platforms in Seoul have screen doors. Here in Vancouver, ever so often you would get disruptions in service due to "medical emergencies" (somebody fell/jump into the tracks) or trains would stop all of the sudden due to "track intrusion" (or some dropping their water bottle/cellphones into the track).

Hi Johnny,The subway system in South Korea seems to be very safe. No one can fall onto the tracks at the stations you showed. I really like that there are doors to block the trains. I wish that USA and Canada would follow these safety measures. Johnny what are hours of operation for transportation in South Korea? This was a great video enjoyed it very much. Thank you Johnny for your hard work.

No the price isn't 3250 won. That's how much your card has left. The top number is the price. In this case 0 won. No money has been charged. No money gets charged if you have rode a bus, or you are transferring to another subway. It will later on be charged.

@@JohnnyStridesI see, but government should re-invest in their metro system consider how modern everything else is in South Korea. These trains are like 40 years old. Japan has even invested in new trains. China is also very late with their infrastructure expansion so they have the latest technology for a reason. Chongqing and Chengdu used to have rural areas, not anymore, those areas have become urban in recent years as more of the population have moved to these cities over time.
