Noksapyeong Station is a subway station on the Seoul Subway Line 6. It is located on the eastern end of the Yongsan Garrison, an American military base in Seoul, and the western end of Itaewon.

This station has low ridership due to its location, but is probably one of the most beautifully built subway stations in Korea. This station has four aboveground floors in addition to five underground levels, and a glass dome on top of the building lets in sunlight that permeates throughout the station. In addition to being featured in Korean movies and dramas, weddings can be held here at no cost. The Embassy of the Philippines in Korea is close to this station.
