✈️ Flying Taipei Songshan (TSA) to Seoul Gimpo (GMP) for a Stray Kids trip
From Taipei, the Songshan → Gimpo route lands you much closer to central Seoul than Incheon. Here's how the flight, the subway and your first (or last) meal fit together.
Step by step
- The flightEVA Air, China Airlines, T'way and Eastar Jet fly nonstop between Taipei Songshan and Seoul Gimpo — about 2 hours 30 minutes. Schedules change by season, so check your airline.
- Get data and a card at GimpoWOWPASS machines are in Gimpo Int'l Airport Station, and many foreign credit cards now work at subway gates on Lines 1–8.
- Into SeoulAREX to Hongik Univ. (Hongdae) or Seoul Station; Line 5 or Line 9 straight to Olympic Park (KSPO DOME), no transfer.
- First or last meal, one stop awayGombaro Gomtang is 4 minutes from Songjeong Stn (Line 5) exit 1 or Gonghang Market Stn (Line 9) exit 4 — mild beef soup, solo-friendly, with Han and Lee Know's signed notes on the wall (partner restaurant).
- Drop your bagsT-Luggage in Gimpo Int'l Airport Station (B1) keeps bags 9 AM–10 PM, so you can go straight to a birthday café and collect them before your flight home.
Before you go
- Heading home from Gimpo? Airport check-in and security are quicker than Incheon, which leaves time for one more café.
- Gimpo is on Line 5 and Line 9 — the same lines that reach KSPO DOME and the JYP area.
