ktx 할인받는법Holidays Many people take the train when visiting their hometown or traveling. If you take Mugunghwa or ITX, it is cheap, but it is not suitable for the modern era, so you will usually use KTX or SRT. However, the price of the fast and convenient KTX and SRT will be burdensome. The KTX costs about 60,000 won from Seoul to Busan, and the SRT is priced in the mid-50,000 won range. However, if you look for KTX and SRT, there is a way to get a discount. So today, let’s look at how to get discounts on KTX and SRT.
There are generally 6 ways to get a KTX discount. I will explain the target and method one by one.
1. Internet Specials
Internet special offers are discounts available when using the KORAIL website or the KORAIL Talk application.
Depending on the KTX ride rate, you can receive a 10-30% discount, and it is a system that allows you to receive a discount when the ride rate is low due to the small number of passengers who have made reservations. Usually, the discount rate is high mainly in the early morning or late at night, and most discounts are not available on weekends or public holidays.
Therefore, when using KTX, you can make a reservation while receiving a discount of up to 30% by aiming for a time zone with fewer people.
Reservation method: After searching for the desired date on Korail Talk or Korail website, reserve a time slot with a 10-30% discount phrase.
2. Youth Dream
