Getting To Seoul
By Plane
Incheon International Airport (ICN)
Incheon International Airport is Seoul’s main international gateway and is served by airlines from destinations around the world.
One of the easiest ways to reach Coex Magok from Incheon Airport is via the AREX Airport Railroad. Take the AREX All-Stop Train to Magongnaru Station. The AREX Express service does not stop at Magongnaru, so delegates travelling directly to the conference venue should use the All-Stop service.
From Magongnaru Station, Coex Magok is only a short walk away. Delegates should follow the latest venue and station signage on arrival.
Gimpo International Airport (GMP)
Gimpo International Airport is located close to the Magok district and serves domestic flights as well as selected international routes. It is a particularly convenient option for delegates connecting through other destinations in South Korea or East Asia.
Getting Around
Seoul has an extensive and efficient public transportation network comprising subway, bus and rail services. For visitors, the subway is generally one of the simplest ways to travel around the city.
Coex Magok is particularly well connected through Magongnaru Station, which is served by:
- Seoul Subway Line 9 – convenient for travelling towards Yeouido, Gangnam and other areas of Seoul.
- AREX Airport Railroad – providing connections towards Incheon International Airport, Gimpo International Airport and central Seoul.
Seoul Subway Line 5 is also accessible from nearby Magok Station.
Local Info
The currency of South Korea is the Korean won (KRW / ₩). Credit and debit cards are accepted very widely throughout Seoul, although carrying a small amount of cash can still be useful.
The official language is Korean. English is commonly used at international hotels, airports and major visitor attractions, and signage throughout Seoul’s public transportation system is generally displayed in Korean and English.
June is one of the most vibrant months to visit Seoul, when warm weather, lush greenery, and lively cultural events transform the city into a perfect early‑summer destination.
Weather & Climate
- Temperature: 20–28°C
- Climate: Warm, bright, and increasingly humid as the month progresses
- Landscape: Parks and palace gardens are in full bloom; riverside areas are lively and green
Tip: Pack light layers and carry a small umbrella — June is just before monsoon season.
South Korea uses 220V electricity and primarily Type C and Type F plugs, the two-round-pin style commonly used throughout continental Europe. International visitors should check whether they require a travel adapter.
International Travellers
Entry requirements for South Korea vary according to nationality and can change. Delegates are responsible for ensuring that they have the appropriate passport, visa or electronic travel authorization required to enter the Republic of Korea. We recommend checking official Korean immigration and consular information well in advance of travel.
Letters of Invite
Letters of invite can be provided to international delegates who may require a letter for Visa application. Please note, full conference registration and payment must be arranged prior to a letter being provided. Please contact us below for more information.
