1. TourAPI 4.0 Public Tourism Information

Korea Travel Atlas utilizes official public tourism datasets provided by the Korea Tourism Organization (한국관광공사) and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism via data.go.kr under the Korea Open Government License (KOGL Type 1 - 공공누리 제1유형: 출처표시 조건 무료이용).

3. Medical Tourism Institution Data

Medical category listings reference the Korea Health Industry Development Institute (한국보건산업진흥원, KHIDI) official registry of foreign-patient-attracting medical institutions, published via data.go.kr ("한국보건산업진흥원_외국인환자 유치기관 현황"). Institution names and addresses were cross-checked against each hospital's own official website on 2026-09-17.

This site does not provide medical advice, cost estimates, or treatment recommendations. Always verify current registration status and details directly at medicalkorea.or.kr before booking.

4. Subway Lines, Stations & Exits (OpenStreetMap)

The subway pages and the “getting there by subway” blocks on place pages use data from OpenStreetMap, © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database License (ODbL) 1.0: line membership and station order, station positions, station names in English, Japanese and Chinese where mapped, station numbers, exit numbers and wheelchair tags. Route relations and exits are a snapshot of 2026-09-11; station names were refreshed on 2026-11-14.

Our derived station database is offered under the same licence: download it as JSON (ODbL 1.0). Station names missing in a language fall back to the English or romanised name and are marked on the pages; Chinese names converted between simplified and traditional characters (with the Apache-2.0 OpenCC character tables) are marked as well. Distances are straight-line and walking times are estimates. The data has no fares, timetables or service status.

5. Intercity Timetables & Incheon Airport (Public Data Portal)

The intercity route pages and the Incheon Airport pages use open APIs from the Public Data Portal (data.go.kr): Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (TAGO) train information (15098552), express bus information (15098522), intercity bus information (15098541) and subway information (15098554); Incheon International Airport Corporation bus information (15095045) and passenger flight status, multilingual (15095093). The portal lists each of them as “이용허락범위 제한 없음” (in the portal’s English: “The use permission range limitless”), under the Public Data Portal policy. Timetables were fetched on 2026-11-14 for the timetable dates shown on each page.

Counts, first and last departures and durations are computed from the timetable for one day; fares are shown only where the API returned them, as the standard adult fare on that day. The pages do not show seat availability, discounts or live delays, and the airport pages do not show live flight status. Train station names in Japanese and Chinese come from OpenStreetMap (ODbL 1.0) where mapped; bus terminal names are given in English with the Korean name.
