"Ddokta," operated by Gyeonggi Transportation Corporation, means "ride smart." It is an integrated transportation platform app that allows users to call and pay for various modes of transportation, including Ddokbus, shared bicycles, shared kickboards (personal mobility devices), and taxis, as well as providing real-time arrival information for city buses and subways.


Since its launch in 2023, Ddokta has steadily expanded its service areas and transportation options, rapidly growing its user base. As a result, the number of downloads increased by approximately 550,000, from 950,000 in December 2023 to 1.5 million in November 2024. In less than three years since its release, cumulative downloads have surpassed 1.5 million, demonstrating a steep growth trajectory.


At the App Award ceremony hosted by Digital Chosun Ilbo, Ddokta has won the grand prize for three consecutive years since 2023 and has also received the grand prize at the Mobile Award for two consecutive years. It has been recognized for its innovation in transforming daily mobility for Gyeonggi residents and is regarded as the representative transportation service app of Gyeonggi Province.


Minkyung Sun, President of Gyeonggi Transportation Corporation, said, "I am very pleased that Ddokta has received the award for three consecutive years, as it feels like our efforts to make daily travel more convenient for residents have been recognized. We will continue to expand smart transportation services that residents can truly experience."



With the operation of 300 Ddokbus demand-responsive buses planned, Ddokta aims to provide optimal route services next year, following its real-time public transportation information. In 2024, Ddokta was awarded the "Excellence Award" at the Gyeonggi Province Active Administration Best Practices and the "Encouragement Award" at the Gyeonggi Province Public Institution Best Policy Case Presentation, proving its public value and continuing to serve as a convenient public platform.
