To senior, pls help me to provide some information. I am planning for 2nd trip to South Korea. This time I want to stay 1 nite in Busan with visit to Jeongsan & Sokcho in Gangwon. My concern is, how am I going to travel from Jeongsan to Sokcho?? Is there any bus/train from Jeongsan to Sokcho?? Which one is better? from Seoul/Sokcho/Jeongsan or from Seoul/ Jeongsan/Sokcho??
There're no direct buses from Sokcho(속초) to Jeongseon(정선) and vice versa. ( I think Jeongsan is typo, right?) You have to transfer at Gangneung Complex Bus Ternminal(강릉종합버스터미널).

Bus Schedule From Jeongseon to Gangneung
Departure Time @ Jeongseon Terminal : 07:10, 08:10, 09:10, 10:10, 12:10, 14:10, 15:10, 16:10, 18:10, 19:10
Travel Time (Jeongseon to Gangneung) : 1 hour 40 minutes

Bus Schedule From Gangneung to Sokcho
First Bus Departure Time @ Gangneung Terminal : 05:50
Last Bus Departure Time @ Gangneung Terminal : 21:00
Bus leaves at 20~30 minutes intervals
Travel Time (Non-Stop) : 1 hour 20 minutes

I think you will take a plane at Gimpo airport, right? Then see this link (Gimpo Airport Domestic Terminal) then you can find 'Baggage Storage'.

anyone here used this pass before?
http://www.korail.com/kr_pass.jsp 'Foreign Railroad Traveling'
I dont quite understand, esp on the JP part where it has diff prices for diff cities.
Does that mean If i buy a Busan-Kobe, I can use it from Busan and stop at maximum Kobe and all cities before Kobe within 7days? If I reached Hiroshima on day4, I can still use it on Day6 heading to Kobe right?

So to everland we need to sit the bus to Myeong-ji University?  and from Myeong-ji University take shuttle bus to everland?

Nope. Myeong-ju University and Gangnam station is the starting and ending point of 5002 buses. You should get off at Everland bus stop.

You can literally use T-money card almost nationwide(except for Gwangju, the only megalopolis city of seven megalopolis cities in korea T-money is not available). The problem is that there're limited places you can re-charge T-money if T-money is not the main transportation card in that area, but T-money is trying to solve it by expanding the covenience stores covering T-money and ATM Recharge service that enables you to re-charge at the several banks' ATM machines( such as Shinhan Bank, Jeju Bank, Hana Bank and Uri Bank etc).

Do you know if all Jeju bus service accept T Money?? Most people didn't know this including me. Thought T Money not accepted in Jeju coz we were told T Money are useless in Jeju.

According to this news, yes you can use T-money on all of Jeju buses.

QUOTE
"제주 올레 길을 여행할 예정이라는 김정현(29)씨는 “제주도에선 버스요금을 표나 현금으로 내야 하는 줄 알았다”며 “서울에서 쓰던 티머니(T-Money) 카드를 사용할 수 있고, 환승까지 된다니 표를 사는 시간을 아낄 수 있고, 비용도 절약될 것 같다”고 말했다."

Kim Jeong Hyeon, who mentioned he was going to Jeju Olle, said "I thought that I should pay the bus fare with cash or token in Jeju. T-money is available here and it give me a transfer discount so that I think I can save the time and cost."

"매년 800만명이 방문하는 제주도는 2006년 10월 구축된 한국스마트카드의 결제 시스템 덕에 교통 및 관련업 환경이 크게 개선됐다. 관광지로 가는 버스표를 사기위해 몰려든 사람 때문에 혼잡하던 터미널 창구는 한결 쾌적해졌고, 카드 이용이 늘면서 버스 승·하차 시간이 줄어들어 차와 버스가 뒤엉키는 구간도 줄었다. 또 운수사는 카드 이용객 증가로 요금정산 내용을 정확하게 집계할 수 있게 됐다. 현재 제주도에서 운행하는 시내·외 버스 총 437대에는 모두 교통카드 단말기가 설치돼 있다."

Korean Smart Card(T-money card) installed t-money system on Jeju in 2006....etc..... As of now(april 2012) all the Jeju city/inter-city buses(437 buses in total) have transportation terminals.

"경남 진주·김해, 광주광역시, 강원 산간 지역을 제외하면, 전국 어디서나 카드 구입처와 상관없이 한장의 티머니 카드로 교통 요금 결제가 가능하다."

You can use T-money card nationwide when you use buses, except for Gyeongsangnam-do Jinju and Gimhae, Gwangju and Gwangwon-do lural area. (Caution : Currently Gyeongsangnam-do Jinju is listed as T-money available area at the T-money official homepage )
