Metro station in Goyang, South Korea / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a station in Goyang. For the station in Daegu, see Daegok Station (Daegu).
Daegok Station is a station on Seoul Subway Line 3, the Gyeongui–Jungang Line and the Seohae Line. It is located in the city of Goyang, close to Ilsan.[2] It is mainly used as a transfer station between the three lines rather than as an actual enter-and-exit stop, as the station is located in the midst of farmland with very little local resident demand.
