Costco Yangjae

Directions to Costco in Yangjae.

First travel to Yanjae Station on line 3.



Leave the station using Exit 7.


At the top of the steps you should be able to see the bus stop across from a 7-11.






At the bus stop, board the Seocho 08 bus. It will be in Hangul and will look like this:



Once on the bus, listen carefully to the announcements for each stop. They are all in Korean, however, you should be able to hear "Costco" and "E-Mart" in the announcement.

Walk about two minutes (follow the signs) and you will be at the Costco.

Don't worry if you miss the stop for Costco. The next stop is the end of the line for the bus, but it will deliver you almost to the front door of Costco.

Thank you very much for this. I'm not from Seoul (I live in a very rural area). Today, I tried a taxi, but unlike last time the taxi driver couldn't get there. After asking for help on his cell phone, he made a 10 min. trip (or more) to POSCO near the COEX Mall. Because he found out that's not what I wanted he left me there - but at least he didn't make me pay him. I ended up going to the one in Sangbong, taking up more time.

I will keep this in mind for the future - thanks again!

This is awesome. Definitely makes it easier to get cheese and peanut butter.

oh my god! JuliusCaesar108, the same thing happened to us!! He took us to first "Posco", and then "Cosco", and even after showing him our costco card, he was typing it into his GPS phonetically and coming up with nothing.

For those of you trying to get to this Costco by taxi, just say "Yangjae E-mart", and you will get there--costco is right across the street!

Thank you! Great directions with perfect photos. More of the internet needs to be this but most of us are too lazy~

Awesome directions!!

But for future...exit 7 is now exit 10...just go out of exit 10 and you see the bus stop for the number 8.

Thanks a lot for this information. As @Nongle pointed out, now it is exit 10 (not exit 7) from Yanjae station. I just used the same route to reach eMart from Yanjae.
