Summary

Description

Here is most of the Seoul Subway map dating from the early 1980s.

Blue denotes "electric rail" and refers to the Korail-managed portions of Line 1. Red is Seoul Subway Line 1, the underground portion in downtown Seoul run by Seoul Metro. In reality, the two were run as a continuous line with through trains from both Korail and Seoul Metro, and today both sections are collectively known as Line 1 with the line color of dark blue.

Green is Seoul Subway Line 2, which would be completed as a circle line in 1984.

Romanization on this map uses the very awkward Ministry of Education System, which was phased out in 1984 in favor of the internationally accepted McCune-Reischauer System in preparation for the 1988 Summer Olympics. McCune-Reischauer itself was discontinued in 2000 in favor of another new system, Revised Romanization, though McCune-Reischauer continues to be the preferred romanization system of non-Korean speakers, the international community, and the US government.
