Incheon Subway Line 1 is a subway line, part of Incheon Subway.

Trial runs on Line 1, a 23 km north-south route, started in March 1999. After six years of construction it opened for regular service on 6 October 1999 as the fourth subway system in South Korea after Seoul, Busan and Daegu. A trip along the line from Gyeyang in the north to Dongmak in the south takes approximately 45 minutes. Bupyeong station is a transfer point to Korail, a route which is actually integrated into Seoul's subway network as an extension of Seoul's Line 1. At the northern terminus Gyeyang it connects with the Incheon International Airport Railroad to Incheon International Airport. Incheon's subway is totally underground except north of Bakcheon. A southern extension of 6.54 km & six stations will open March 2009.
