Blacklink
Since most public transportations (bus, subway/metro) are not available 24/7,
make sure to check the bus schedules when using late night bus. During busy hours,
it is hard to find a taxi driver and the you may have to pay for extra fare for late night use.
Despite of a bit higher price, Blacklink provides a hassle free and comfortable door-to-door transfer
service from Incheon Airport (ICN) and Gimpo Airport (GMP) to your lodging or from
your lodging to ICN and GMP.
Don't sweat outside waiting for other transportation with your luggage. Make a round trip
reservation with Blacklink as you plan for your trip. It is easy, convenient and available 24/7.
Then, the assigned Blacklink driver will greet you at the arrival and will drive you to
the itaewon (station).
You can use Blacklink for not only hotel but also Gimpo Airport (GMP),
Myeongdong, Jongno-gu, guesthouse, resort, airbnb, lodging and anywhere you want to go in Korea.

Driver arrived on-time and was very nice! Customer service was also amazing! I had to book the night before and was unsure if my reservation was actually confirmed so I connected with their customer support agent over the livechat box and they were able to help me right away. Thank you so much for everything!

Everything was so easy and my driver was really nice! He helped me to get to my goshiwon because I didn't know where the entrance was and because I can't speak Korean well, he got inside and called someone for me. Im really grateful for this! Probably the best taxi I've had :)

Driver was friendly and kind as he loaded all of our heavy luggage into the black van. He arrived at least 15 minutes in advance which gave us a good time frame to find him and leave on time. Good service.

Itaewon Station
There are many restaurants in Itaewon serving cuisine that are not widely available in Korea, such as those from India, Pakistan, Turkey, Southeast Asia, Britain, Germany, Italy, France, Portugal, Spain and Mexico. Essentially, it's known as "Western Town," reminiscent of many Chinatowns in Western nations.
Itaewon, along with Insadong and Seoul Tower, is one of the most popular places in Seoul for tourists. Major hotels such as the Grand Hyatt and local landmark Hamilton Hotel are here as well as dozens of shops and services aimed at tourists. High-quality leather products are sold at reasonable prices (though haggling is expected) as well as traditional Korean souvenirs.
Counterfeit goods and clothing items are ubiquitous and of varying qualities. Some authentic goods that are only produced in Korea for the international market, as well as some authentic imports are also available. Itaewon is known for its clothesmakers who produce custom-made suits.
Aside from the local businesses, there is a rich community of business owners, including a pie shop owner from the U.S.A. (Tartine), authentic American burgers, a wine bar, an Austrian delicatessen (with an array of cheeses and meats), a veterinarian/pet groomer with an excellent reputation, a chiropractor from Oregon, doctors and nurses, pharmacists and grocery shop owners.
Many foreigners in Korea reside within or near Itaewon, as well as some of the richest Korean businesspeople, including Lee Kun-Hee, the chairman of Samsung group.
