About
Originally opened as Sinnam Station in 1939, this site was renamed Gim Yu-jeong Station in 2004, marking the first time in Korean history a railway station was named after a person. While the original building closed in 2010 with the opening of the new Gyeongchun Line, it has since been preserved and developed into a popular retro tourist attraction. The new station building features traditional Korean architecture, while the adjacent old station remains frozen in time. The old platform is now a photo zone decorated with playful signs, and the station’s interior retains its original nostalgic atmosphere. Adding to the charm, a retired Mugunghwa train rests on the tracks, repurposed as a cozy book café and a tourist information center. The grounds also feature an outdoor wedding venue that is available for public use free of charge.
