We are planning to go there in May but it seems like there isn't any rail pass available from Seoul and we probably have to go the long route which takes about 100minutes to arrive at Gapyeong Station! after explore all these then only out from nami to gapyeong right? I didn’t know Nami Island was a micronation so that got me even more excited. The rail bikes trudge along the tracks assisted for much of the course.

Fooling around while waiting for our train haha.. Our train departed Cheongyangni at 09:17 and arrived at Gapyeong at 09:55 (less than 40 mins) pretty fast! I'm worried it might be too hot by then.
