Line 7 Malfunction Restored... "Doing Our Best with Recovery Operations"
Train Service Resumed Around 5:17 AM
[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Seoul Metro announced that the malfunction on the Line 7 train bound for the upper track at Children’s Grand Park Station (Jangam direction) that occurred at 3:29 PM on the 22nd has been resolved, and the train service between Cheongdam Station and Taereungipgu Station in both directions, which had been suspended, resumed around 5:17 PM.
To minimize customer inconvenience caused by the train suspension, the company deployed substitute buses at Gunja Station, Cheongdam Station, and Taereungipgu Station, where the service was halted. For sections other than the suspended area, trains operated by turning back at Cheongdam Station and Taereungipgu Station. Additionally, immediately after the incident, an on-site accident response headquarters was formed to restore the situation, completing the recovery around 5:17 PM.
