Frequently Asked Questions

Only during station operating hours. Most stations open from first train (~5:30 AM) to last train (~12:30 AM). A few major stations (Seoul Station, airports, key transfer hubs) keep their locker areas open overnight.

If you leave luggage past closing, you can retrieve it the next morning but extra hours stack up.

One session typically lasts 4–6 hours. Going over auto-charges additional fees that you pay at the terminal before retrieving your bag.

Costs accumulate by 24-hour blocks for longer stays, so multi-day storage gets expensive fast.

Procedure varies by operator, but most stations will help if you go to the station office with your ID and the approximate storage time. Allow 30–60 minutes for verification.

If you paid by transit card or QR, tapping the same card/QR at the terminal usually unlocks it directly (with the extra fee billed).

Yes. Most touchscreen terminals support Korean, English, Japanese, and Chinese. They accept credit cards (VISA/Master/JCB) and T-money/Cashbee transit cards — no cash needed.

If you need help, just ask the station staff: "Coin locker, please?" works.

This is a one-person project, so not every station is freshly verified. Please send a correction via the Report page — we usually update within 1–2 days.

Each station's detail page on this site shows how many Large / XL units it has — check before you go.

Korean lockers are generally safe — steel cabinets, standard security locks, and operators are liable in case of theft.

That said, keep cash, passports, and laptops on you. Compensation for damage to high-value items inside lockers is usually limited.
