Frequently Asked Questions

Real-time operating information, seat availability, fares, and terminal information for express and intercity buses across Korea. It is based on the Korea MOLIT TAGO public data, so you can rely on the accuracy.

Yes, it is 100% free. You can look up everything without signup or login, and there is no paid feature.

No app download is needed — the site is optimized for phones, tablets, and PCs in any web browser. You can also add it to your home screen for app-like convenience.

No. To remove unnecessary friction, signup has been disabled. You can find the bus information you need as soon as you arrive at the site.

For privacy, search history is stored only on your device (browser) — not on a server — in temporary storage. Clearing your browser cookies/cache also clears the history.

Yes. To reduce eye strain, dark mode is applied automatically based on your system settings, so you can use the service comfortably at night too.

Currently this service is lookup-only and does not provide payment or booking. Please book via official channels such as Tmoney GO, Kobus, or Bustago.

Yes. Express buses are typically booked via Tmoney GO or Kobus, while intercity buses use Bustago or the Intercity Bus Integrated Booking system. Tmoney GO now offers integrated lookup for many routes.

Yes — at the terminal ticket counter or self-service kiosk. However, during holidays and weekend peak times tickets sell out quickly, so check seat availability here before heading out.

Bring documentation such as a student ID or youth ID. Online, choose the "Youth" fare; at the counter or when boarding, the driver may ask to see your student ID.

Express buses generally do not offer senior discounts. Intercity buses may offer 10–30% discounts depending on the route and operator. Check directly with the terminal or operator for accurate information.

Bring your veteran's ID and book at the counter, or after online booking complete the verification step on site. Free or discounted benefits vary by grade.

For online bookings, you can print or save a receipt from the "My Bookings" or "Booking History" menu of your booking site/app. For on-site purchases, the ticket itself serves as the receipt.

Generally, no fee up to 2 days before departure. From 1 day before to 1 hour before departure it's about 5%; from 1 hour before to departure it's about 10%. After departure, 30%–50% may be withheld, or the ticket may be non-refundable.

Even after departure, you can often get a partial refund (typically about 70%) if before the scheduled arrival time. App refunds may not be possible, so visit the terminal counter immediately.

If you booked multiple tickets in one payment, partial cancellation may or may not be available depending on the booking site's policy — sometimes you need to cancel all and rebook. Tmoney GO generally supports partial cancellations.

If service is canceled or significantly delayed due to natural disasters or operator fault, you can receive a full refund without fees. Please contact the terminal counter for assistance.

If the booking can be verified via card payment records, the counter may be able to reissue it. However, paper tickets bought with cash and not registered to a name are difficult to reissue or refund if lost.

Yes — most express/intercity buses scan a QR code at the onboard terminal. Maximize your screen brightness when scanning for better recognition. No paper ticket needed.

Arrive at the terminal at least 10 minutes early and confirm your boarding gate. Buses depart on time — even one minute late and the bus will not wait.

Foods with strong smells or liquid (stews, burger combos, etc.) may not be allowed. Simple drinks (with lids) and non-smelly snacks are generally fine, but be considerate of other passengers.

On long-distance routes the bus typically stops at a rest area for about 15 minutes. Listen carefully to the driver's announcement and confirm the departure time. Remember the bus number or location.

Stay calm and go to the rest stop's main information desk immediately. Staff can contact the operator or the next bus to help. (Knowing the operator's phone number ahead of time helps.)

Premium buses offer 160° reclining seats, individual monitors, privacy curtains, wireless chargers, and more — comparable to airline business class. Fatigue is noticeably lower on long trips.

Most Premium and Deluxe express buses have free Wi-Fi (check the seat-side notice). Some regular express or intercity buses may not.

Most newer express/intercity buses have USB charging ports next to or under the seat. Premium buses also support wireless charging pads.

Generally, 1–2 carry-ons within about 15–20 kg per person can go in the trunk for free. Excessive or moving-house-scale luggage may incur a separate cargo fee.

In principle only folding bicycles (packaged) are allowed. Regular bicycles may be allowed at the driver's discretion if trunk space allows, but may be refused. Removing the front wheel is good etiquette.

Pets in a dedicated carrier (cage) can ride with you. They must not disturb other passengers; if they make noise, boarding may be refused. Large dogs are typically not allowed.

Contact the arrival terminal office or the operator's office immediately. Knowing the date, time, departure/arrival points, and seat number (if possible) increases the chance of recovery.

Yes — most terminals offer express bus cargo ("Zero Day" parcel) service. You can send and receive on the same day, which is faster and cheaper than quick services.

Major terminals usually have paid storage lockers. Fees vary by size, and card payment is increasingly common in addition to cash.

It varies. Major terminals (Seoul Express, Central City, etc.) tend to be expensive; smaller regional terminals are often free or have affordable public parking nearby.

Some terminals operate 24 hours, but many close after the last bus. Rural waypoints and small terminals may not allow overnight waiting — confirm in advance.

Large terminals have pharmacies, convenience stores, restaurants, and cafes. Smaller terminals usually have only a convenience store. Some basic medications can be bought at convenience stores too.

Occasionally there is a mismatch due to road conditions or system delays. If you consistently see incorrect information, please report it by email — we will check and request corrections quickly.

The terminal may have closed or been renamed. Very small wayside stops may not appear in the system. Please verify the exact name.
