Introduction
Starting from Seoul Station and Yongsan Station, KTX stretches all over Korea and has many stops. I will now show you the time it takes to get to each station, the area where the station is located, and the estimated fare. However, not all KTX trains stop at all the stations listed here.
For example, among all KTX trains departing from Seoul Station, less than 10 trains stop at Suwon Station per week. That is less than 5%. However, all KTX trains stop at Daejeon Station, East Daegu(Dong-Daegu) Station, and Busan Station. Because of these differences, you should check the Lets Korail website for accurate information on where the KTX you want to ride stops.
Also, please note that the final destinations you can go to from Yongsan Station and Seoul Station are different, as shown in the photo above.
All Routes
In the picture above, the stations marked in blue are all stations you can arrive at when departing from Seoul Station. The stations marked in purple are all stations you can arrive at when departing from Yongsan Station. If a station (Mokpo Station, Yeosu Station) has both blue and purple names, it means you can go to that station from both Seoul Station and Yongsan Station. However, the trains to Busan Station are only painted blue, so you cannot go from Yongsan Station to Busan Station.
KTX trains departing from Seoul have different route names depending on their final destination. Since the starting point of all routes is Seoul Station or Yongsan Station anyway, the route names are not that important, but I will explain them first for classification purposes.
It's not a very important fact, but the Line Jungbunaeryuk, a KTX train that runs between Pangyo and Chungju, cannot be boarded at Seoul Station; you have to go to Pangyo Station.
