Getting back
For what is actually running tonight, the map apps are the accurate answer. Below is what they cannot tell you.
Nearest station
Sports Complex Station 종합운동장역 (Lines 2 & 9, Exit 6)
Last train, weekdays 9호선 24:57 → 삼전 · 24:51 → 신논현· weekend 9호선 23:47 → 중앙보훈병원 · 23:56 → 동작
These times come from the published timetable. Trains after midnight are written as 24:00 and later, exactly as the platform boards write them. Holidays and special schedules change them, so confirm once more in a map app on the day.
Near here, after the show
- Clubs fill up after 10pm and run until dawn. Bring your passport — the door will check ID. Entry policies vary from place to place, so it is worth having more than one in mind.
- Last subways vary by line but generally go around midnight. Shows usually end between 10 and 11pm, so leaving promptly you will normally make it — it is the merch queue and the photos that cost people the train.
- After the subway stops, night buses numbered with an N run until roughly 3–4am. Your T-money card works on them, and the routes show up in any map app.
- The street outside a venue at closing time is the hardest place in the city to find a taxi, and the hailing apps usually want a Korean phone number. Walking five minutes to a main road is normally faster than waiting.
- Look up your way back before the show rather than after it. Afterwards you will be in a crowd, on the move, with no room to study a screen.
