Yongsan Station is a major railway station in the Yongsan District of Seoul, South Korea. The station adjoins the Yongsan Electronics Market. The station is the terminus for high-speed and long-distance trains on a number of railway lines, including most trains on the Honam Line, its high-speed counterpart, and all trains on the Janghang and Jeolla Lines.

Prior to 2004, all long-distance trains serving Seoul terminated at the nearby Seoul Station, but with the opening of the Korea Train Express (KTX), Yongsan Station took over some of Seoul's services. On February 28, 2012, ITX-Cheongchun trains began service between this station and Chuncheon station on the Gyeongchun Line. Yongsan station is also served by metro rail on Line 1 and the Gyeongui–Jungang Line on the Seoul Metropolitan Subway.

The station is scheduled to become a transfer station with the Shinbundang Line in 2025. Once the Shinbundang Line station at Yongsan becomes operational, Yongsan Station will become connected with Sinyongsan Station on Line 4.

I'park Mall in Yongsan[edit]

In 2004, a major cinema opened adjacent to the station. In August 2006, the whole station building was made into a large department store, called I'Park Mall. The building now includes the railway station, subway station, the CGV cinema and several restaurants and shops, as well as housing the first building of the Yongsan Electronics Market. There is a bridge connecting I'Park Mall and the Yongsan Electronics Market. On floors B-1 and B-2 there is a very large E-Mart store along with a food court and a Burger King restaurant. In the higher floors some of the restaurants include: KFC, Lotteria, Outback Steakhouse and many Korean and Japanese restaurants. Other outlets, such as Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, and Baskin Robbins, are also available. A duty-free store operated by HDC Shilla opened its doors in 2016, and the entire I'Park Mall underwent a major expansion in 2017. There is 'ADIDAS FOOTBALL THEBASE', which uses the 8th and 9th floors together. 'ADIDAS FOOTBALL THEBASE' is a football stadium introduced as "a space for improving citizens' physical strength in the city." It has one indoor football stadium and seven outdoor football stadiums.
