Korea Railroad Corporation (KORAIL) said that service was restored as of 9:48 a.m. on the 8th after a power cutoff on Line 1 of the Seoul subway, and trains are running normally. Thirty-eight trains were delayed by 10 minutes or more, and the specific cause of the disruption will be investigated.
At about 7:29 a.m. that day, an electricity supply failure in the downbound section between Chang-dong Station and Sinimun Station on Line 1 caused delays on downbound trains across the entire line. KORAIL temporarily suspended downbound train operations between Dobongsan Station and Cheongnyangni Station for emergency measures, and commuters faced continued inconvenience.
