Korean Public Transportation: T-Money Cards

Something great about Korea is that Public Transportation is cheap and convenient. There are 3 common ways to get around your city in Korea; Bus, Subway, and Taxi. The transportation card in Korea is called T-Money. They are cute little cards that are filled to your desired amount to use for any mode of transportation. After arriving in Incheon airport, there will be a convenient store to either the right or left-hand side of the arrival gate. At the convenient store, there will be T-Money cards at the cashier's counter. The card itself costs ₩5,000. After purchasing the card, you may fill the card to the amount you like. It is always a good idea to fill your card at the airport so that it will be ready to go when you reach your desired city.  (T-Money Cards do not work for AirPort Buses.) The card can be filled by giving cash with your T-Money card to the cashier of ANY convenient store. T-Money cards can be used for the Bus, Subway, and even to pay Taxi drivers. There are 2 common ways to fill your Card. One being at any convenient store, and the second being in any subway station. Before entering the Subway Tracks, there will be re-filling machines with an option for English instructions. Unfortunately, as T-Money policy states, the Card can only be filled with cash.
