The World Cup Stadium Station is a metropolitan subway station in Seoul, Korea. The station was built to facilitate access to the Seoul World Cup Stadium for 2002 FIFA World Cup.[1][2] The station has a very specific design with a main entrance reminiscent of a Greek amphitheater, between Exits 2 and 3.
