Ewha Womans University (Korean: 이대역; RR: Idae-yeok) is a station on the Line 2 of the Seoul Metropolitan Subway.
As its name indicates, it serves the nearby Ewha Womans University, although Sinchon Station on the Gyeongui-Jungang Line is closer to the school.
[2] As many schools and residential buildings are close to Ewha Womans University Station, there are many shops selling clothes at relatively low price.
The main street selling clothes is named Ewhayeodae 5-gil.
Although technically the station has one island platform with both rail tracks running on opposite sides, the two boarding areas with screen doors are essentially blocked off from each other, and are connected only by a few long and narrow passageways.
