Singil Station (pronounced sin-jill) is a station on the Seoul Subway's Lines 1 and 5.

This station is somewhat notorious for its poor transfer between the platforms on Lines 1 and 5,[citation needed] having one of the longest transfer distances in the Seoul Metropolitan Subway system. The Line 1 station is also the first aboveground station in South Korea to have operating platform screen doors.
