This is the Capital Area Railway Vehicle Maintenance Depot, where KTX trains that traversed the country throughout the holiday gather one by one.
Although all passengers have disembarked, the day is just beginning here.
Around 100 employees work in 24-hour shifts every day to inspect the trains.
Inside the vehicle depot, which spans approximately 400,000 pyeong, a unique scene unfolds as staff members get around on bicycles.
As the train rolls in, veteran workers simultaneously scatter inside, outside, and underneath the train, moving in perfect unison! For those who must complete inspections within a strict timeframe, they say that "hands and eyes" honed through years of experience are just as important as cutting-edge equipment.
We closely covered the tireless operations behind the scenes to ensure KTX trains can run safely once again.
