Right by Exit 2 — the right side of Blue Square

According to the report, if you come out of Hangangjin Station Exit 2, face Blue Square and go in on the right, you will see the smoking area right away. It was reported as an open area, so think of it as an outdoor space without walls or a roof. It is the closest spot to the station exit, so it is convenient before or after taking the subway. Three on-site photos are posted, so tap the pin on the map and check the entrance and surroundings first, and you won't get lost.

Next to the stairs behind Blue Square — about 70 m east

About 70 m east of the Exit 2 area there is a second report. According to it, if you go down outdoors to the back of the building, it is next to the stairs, and you come out by going around toward the parking lot. This one was also reported as an open area and has two on-site photos. The two reports are about 70 m apart, so they are treated as different places with separate pins on the map. If one is crowded, the other is within easy reach.

A little further — Yongsan-gu public data areas

Within 800 m of the Exit 2 area, there are also five designated smoking areas published by Yongsan-gu: a hotel area about 475 m west (the rest area on the way to the 1F outdoor parking), the Cheil Worldwide 1F outdoor parking about 690 m southwest, outside the funeral hall and on the new building rooftop of Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital about 700 m and 740 m south, and outside the 5th floor of Hannam Building about 760 m southwest. All of them belong to buildings, so use may be limited depending on the building's operating hours.

Where to dispose of cigarette butts

There is no published cigarette butt bin information yet within 800 m of Hangangjin Station. If an area has no ashtray, please bring a portable one. This site is not meant to encourage smoking; it was made to show both where you can smoke and where to dispose of butts. If people can't find a designated area and smoke on the street, they run into non-smokers, and butts thrown on the ground clog storm drains and worsen flooding or lead to fires and ocean pollution. The location information on this page was collected for the same purpose, so please be sure to put your butts in an ashtray or a bin.

Things to note

The two areas above are user reports, so their location or layout may differ from what is shown. Smoking outside designated areas may be fined up to 100,000 won under the National Health Promotion Act, and littering cigarette butts may carry a 50,000 won fine.
