Great review! I've never taken this service, but I've taken the original KTX out of central Seoul to Busan on the TGV trainsets. I used to always refer to KTX as the "only TGV whose first class I can actually afford" - I've indeed noticed that transportation in South Korea is a good value, compared to everything else which can be pricey.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

French and Moroccan TGV First Class is actually remarkably affordable 🙃

[@steamairlinesrfs3648]

It's not TGV...

[@AllyMcLesbian]

@@steamairlinesrfs3648 I am fully aware. Read my original comment again - I said the original KTX (which was a TGV) rather than the Hyundai Rotem sets that are the KTX Sancheon and the SRT in this video.

[@majy1735]

02:45, "There are no ticket or security checks before you're allowed to the platforms". Of course! This sounds obvious to any East-Asian or European but it comes as a big surprise to most US Americans and Canadians. North America is so obsessed with planes that it treats stations like airports, with "watiting lounges", luggage weighing (!), "boarding" processes etc. This is ridiculous and obliterates one of the great benefits of (high-speed rail) over air or road travel. Even America's impressive new high-speed operator Brightline spoils its travelers' experience by forcing them to arrive well in advance, go through a check-in and boarding process etc. Which inevitably extends the total travel time and sometimes completely obliterates the advantage of its high-speed trains over driving within Florida. In Europe, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, you hardly have any checks before boarding the train (I should say "stepping onboard" rather than "boarding"): some quick luggage screening for the Spanish AVE, some random checks for the Thalys - only the Eurostar has a genuine pre-boarding check process, because it travels through the Chunnel and because the UK is outside the EU. If Canada and the US want their current and future high speed and high frequency trains to be successful, they should just stop treating them like airplanes. Kudos to South Korea for understanding this!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Not true, much of Europe has ticket barriers and checks before access to the platform is granted

[@majy1735]

@@NonstopEurotrip Not true. I'm European, I know it full well.

[@TheMaartian]

@@NonstopEurotrip True in France (at least in a main city station like Bordeaux), but only for some trains like the TGV, InOui and OuiGo. SNCF personnel use hand scanners to check QR codes on smartphones or paper. When the same tracks are used by regional trains, the access gates are open and unmanned. I use the TER regional trains between my home in Arcachon and Bordeaux. A small station like Arcachon has ZERO platform checks (I don't know if there is any kind of check for the one InOui departure for Paris every morning at 06h00). I live 200 meters from the station and can walk directly to the train, without going through the station building. Super easy.

12:22 It is the station with the highest number of trains in Korea and the largest train station in Korea with 14 train platforms. Right in front of the station is a very large express bus terminal called the Dongdaegu Station Complex Transfer Center. Therefore, in Dongdaegu Station, high-speed railway, general railway, metropolitan railway (scheduled to open next year), urban railway, subway, express bus, intercity bus, city bus, taxi, large taxi, deluxe taxi, airport bus, and airport railroad (scheduled to open in 2030) etc. can be used. In the long term, as more railway lines are scheduled to open, the importance of Dongdaegu Station will increase even more, and the number of trains will also increase. The Daegu Metropolitan City government built Seodaegu Station even though Daegu Station exists next to Dongdaegu Station in order to prevent saturation in Dongdaegu Station.

Actually SRT is a nationally operated company. SRT was originally created by government, but later in order to maximize profit and make competition against KTX, SRT was decided to be operated by private company. However, train, station, and railway maintenance and overall operation was done by Korail. So government decided that private SRT was not working out, and made SRT part of Korail, which is operated by government.

[@richard-riku]

By European standards this is a nice train but a bit lacking compared to a Shinkansen. There is no level boarding, the seats don't line up with the windows and two rows share the same window blind. The loading gauge is narrower so the train is more cramped inside. The first class seats look quite cheap compared to a 700 series Shinkansen. From the way people stand on the platform there are no door markings for people to line up at either, people are standing around and then walking to the doors once the train stops (like in Europe!). On the other hand the price is quite reasonable (perhaps the only thing it does better than a Shinkansen)
