Travel and Accommodation

Daejeon is on the main KTX high-speed line and is straightforward to reach from Seoul and from Incheon International Airport.

Rail

Travelling by KTX

  • Seoul Station to Daejeon Station takes about one hour by KTX. Trains run throughout the day.
  • Travel via Seoul. There is no longer a direct KTX service from Incheon International Airport. The route runs from the airport to Seoul Station, then Seoul to Daejeon by high-speed rail.
  • Daejeon Station is the stop for the conference, not Seodaejeon. The KAIST main campus is about twenty minutes further by taxi.

Local transport

Getting around Daejeon

  • Daejeon Metro Line 1 links Daejeon Station to the Yuseong university quarter, where KAIST sits.
  • Kakao T is the standard taxi application in Korea and can be used in English.
