Bokjeong Station is a station on the Seoul Subway Line 8 and Bundang Line. This station has one of the most sophisticated and convenient transfer systems in the Seoul Subway in which the Bundang Line platform is directly beneath the Line 8 platform. Passengers can transfer from the Bundang Line to Line 8 (and vice versa) simply by taking one flight of stairs/escalators. The vicinity of the station, however, has no significant source of passengers, and this station is underutilised.
The only aboveground section of Line 8 lies between here and Sanseong Station, although both stations are situated underground.
It is the closest station to Seoul International School, located in the city of Seongnam; this station is on the border between Seoul and Seongnam.
