Munsan station (Korean: 문산역) is a railway station on theGyeongui–Jungang Line. It is notable for being the closest station on theSeoul Metropolitan Subway to theborder withNorth Korea that is open for passenger service, only a few kilometers away.[2]
On March 18, 2007, a train from Munsan station entered North Korea for the first time since 1951 under South KoreanUnification MinisterLee Jae-joung.[3] Members of the oppositionGrand National Party criticized the event as a political stunt.[4]
As a regular railway station it is an interim stop betweenDorasan station in the Demilitarised Zone andSeoul Station.[5] The tourist train between Seoul and the DMZ Border is currently not in operation, due to concerns about the spread of the outbreak ofAfrican swine fever.[6]
TheGyeongui–Jungang Line (Munsan–Imjingang) extension opened on March 28, 2020.[citation needed]
