Hello! I'm newbie for providing some information about seoul.
I guess some of you wants to get out of seoul, go trip to other regions of korea sometimes.
but if you can't be out of your daily routine, I recommend you what I introduce from now on.
ITX(Inter-city Train eXpress)
-new paradigm of a train trip-
if you have heard about KTX, you will understand easily.
ITX is a train like KTX, but you can't go everywhere by taking ITX.
that's a difference between KTX and ITX.
if you take ITX, your destination will be limited to chuncheon, Kang-Won Do.
Here is a linemap of ITX.

Yong-san ~ Chuncheon 98Km
I'm sorry that all of station is noted in korean language.
the last station Chuncheon is one of the famous tourist sites.
you can take it from yong-san station, or sang-bong station, and it takes about 1hour.
so if you wanna go trip to Chuncheon, you can do it for just a day.
I've gone there by it for a day without any remorse.
From now I will note some information for taking ITX.
Fare : 7,300won(yongsan ~ Chuncheon)
you can book a ticket from station, smartphone application, Korail homepage, etc.
this table informs fare to main destinations.
