three
kinds
of
urban
buses
running
in
Seoul
City:

and
Deluxe
Express
Buses.
The
City

are
referred
to
as
'Jwaseok
(seat)'
in
Korean
and
are
more
comfortable
than
general
city
buses.
City
Buses
are
referred
to
as
'Ilban'
bus
in
Korean.
They
are
numbered
according
to
their
specific
routing.
Since
destinations
are
written
in
Korean,
English
and
Chinese,
you
can
take
the
right
bus
without
difficulties.
You
may
get
assistance
from
your
hotel
front
desk
to
find
out
where
the
bus
stops
are
and
which
number
you
should
take.
You
may
also
contact
the
Bus
Route
Information
Center
at
(+82-2)
414-5005
for
routes
and
time
schedule.
In
addition,
there
is
one
more
type
of
bus
called
'Maeul
Bus'
in
Korean
that
is
a
kind
of
a
community
shuttle
bus.
It
is
usually
run
on
a
short-distance
service
course
in
the
residential
area
that
doesn't
have
a
convenient
transportation
like
a
subway
or
a
bus.
These
buses
are
smaller
and
cheaper
than
the
normal
buses.
The
transportation
card
is
also
available
for
this
type
of
bus. |

well
as

bus
fares.
The
Transportation

can
also
be
used
to
pay
subway
fares.
10,000,
and
20,000won

are
sold
and
recharged
at
kiosks
or

the card
reader
installed
