The “Donghae Jungbu Line,” connecting Samcheok City In Gangwon Province and Pohang City in North Gyeongsang Province, Will Open On December 31, 2024.

As a result, travelers will be able to enjoy train journeys along the East Coast from Busan to Gangneung. The ITX-Maum train, which has a maximum speed of 150 km/h, will be introduced first to gauge demand, with plans to also operate the faster KTX-Eum train. Riding the ITX-Maum will take approximately 3 hours and 50 minutes to travel from Gangneung to Busan, while the KTX-Eum will reduce travel time to about 2 hours and 35 minutes.
