Travel to Mokpo

The station is located at the near range with Yudal mountain, southern west part of the city. The railroad ended inside the station while industrial rail transport no longer operates reached Samhakdo. For industrial purposes, the line played role to carry coals for factories as a branch proximity to the local citizen’s residence. Because of serious dangers, the city decided to remove the rail in 2011.

Before the operation of KTX bullet train, the road passed the center of the city through Yeon dong, whereas the double-track project managed rails penetrating the town to be removed. Instead, the circulating rail takes detouring course via Seokhyun area with underground tunnel.

On April 1 of 2004, Korea Train Express took the opening ceremony with 3 hour range from Seoul to Mokpo, whereas actual time required is beyond the expectation as Korean railroad service did not provide least stops within Honam Line. 3 hour travel is only possible when stopping at 4 stops
