How to ride subway in Korea 2

Last time I introduced subway line in Korea. That we have 10 lines near Seoul and you can use card to travel. Few days ago, when I went to ShinGill to meet my friend, I saw six white men were stuck on station since they the machine did not let them go outside of the station lol.

It happened because they did not know where to put the card. So I will talk about 'how to use your transportation card!' today.

When you get on the bus or go to subway station, you will find little machines which are look like below.


Once you find this machine, don't get panic, and just put your transportation card on top of 'T money' sign. Then you will hear little 'beep' sound and the screen will show you some number. The number is how much you got charged, or sometimes it will show you how much money you spent cumulatively if your card is not prepaid card.

As long as you heard 'beep' sound, you are free to go and find your seat!!! Also, as I discussed last time, you should put your card once again before you get off from the bus or leave the station. (don't stuck in the subway station like those six white men in ShinGill station loll)
