The '''Gyeongchun Line''' is a [[regional rail]] line between [[Seoul]] and [[Chuncheon]], [[South Korea]], operated by [[Korail]]. Its name is derived from '''''Gyeong'''seong'' ({{lang|ko|京}}, meaning the capital, Seoul) and '''''Chun'''cheon''. It was completely reconstructed in the 2000s. Service on it has operated between [[Sangbong station]] on the [[Jungang Line]] in eastern Seoul and [[Chuncheon station]], as part of the [[Seoul Metropolitan Subway]] system, since December 21, 2010. A class of regional rail service named '''[[ITX-Cheongchun]]''' began operations on February 28, 2012, linking Chuncheon to [[Cheongnyangni station|Cheongnyangni]] and [[Yongsan station|Yongsan]] Stations.

== History ==
The original Gyeongchun Line was opened along its full length of {{convert|87.3|km|abbr=on}} between [[Kwangwoon University station|Kwangwoon University]] on the [[Gyeongwon Line]] to Chuncheon by the privately owned [[Gyeongchun Railway]] on 20 July 1939.<ref name="lineop">{{cite web |url=http://info.korail.com/2007/kra/ope/ope08000/w_ope08606.jsp |title=경영원칙 - 경영공시 - 영업현황 - 영업거리현황 |publisher=[[Korail]] |access-date=2010-12-04 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110722192217/http://info.korail.com/2007/kra/ope/ope08000/w_ope08606.jsp |archive-date=2011-07-22 }}</ref><ref>私設鉄道運輸開始, 朝鮮総督府官報(The Public Journal of the Governor-General of Korea)　Showa Nr. 3754, 26 July 1939</ref> Chuncheon was the most popular destination for students on orientation trips, bringing passengers to the line.<ref name="jd-chug"/> Following the [[Liberation of Korea]], all railways, including the Gyeongchun Railway, were nationalised.

On September 1, 2010, the South Korean government announced a strategic plan to reduce travel times from Seoul to 95% of the country to under 2 hours by 2020. As part of the plan, the Gyeongchun Line is to be further upgraded for 230&nbsp;km/h and may see [[Korea Train Express|KTX]] service.<ref name="plans2020">{{cite web |url=http://joongangdaily.joins.com/article/view.asp?aid=2925474 |title=Bullet trains coming to a town near you by 2020 |date=2010-09-02 |publisher=[[JoongAng Daily]] |access-date=2010-10-27}}</ref> For the longer term, the government also considers to build a parallel high-speed line that would continue beyond Chuncheon to [[Sokcho]] on South Korea's east coast.<ref name="plans2020"/>

On November 4, 2016, two trains (one in the morning, one in the night) were added to the line. These trains run to and from [[Kwangwoon University station]], allowing for transfers to [[Seoul Subway Line 1|Line 1]]. These trains take the Mangu Line Branch.

On September 26, 2016, the service was extended to [[Cheongnyangni station]] to improve access to regional trains (KTX, Seoul Metro Line 1) at the station. However, only 10 trains in each direction travel past Sangbong Station; the majority of the trains still terminate at Sangbong Station, and the two special rush-hour trains still run to and from Kwangwoon University Station.<ref name="Archived copy">{{cite web |url=http://www.letskorail.com/etc/excel/160926_10_Sangbong-Chonchen.xls |title=Archived copy |access-date=2016-12-02 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170210210902/http://www.letskorail.com/etc/excel/160926_10_Sangbong-Chonchen.xls |archive-date=2017-02-10 }}</ref>

When the new Gyeongchun Line was opened on December 21, 2010, passenger service was integrated into the Seoul Metropolitan Subway system as a name of ''Seoul Metropolitan Subway Gyeongchun Line (수도권 전철 경춘선)''.<ref>{{cite news|last=Gisam|first=Hong|date=December 13, 2019|title=서울 지하철 6호선 신내역 21일 개통...경춘선과 만난다|trans-title=Seoul Metro Line 6 Sinnae station opens - connects Gyeongchun Line|url=https://www.news1.kr/articles/?3792506|language=ko|work=News1 News|location=Seoul|access-date=January 27, 2021|quote=서울 지하철 6호선이 신내역 개통을 통해 수도권 전철 경춘선과 만난다.}}</ref> It brings that the system from Seoul all the way into [[Gangwon Province, South Korea|Gangwon Province]].<ref name="jd-chug"/> The new service reduced travel time between Chuncheon and [[Sangbong station|Sangbong]] in Seoul from two hours to 89 minutes, with different trains operating according to different stopping patterns; and increased capacity five-fold.<ref name="jd-chug"/> Compared to the previous [[Mugunghwa-ho]] train service on the Gyeongchun Line, fares were reduced by half.<ref name="jd-chug"/> For the service, [[Hyundai Rotem]] supplied Korail with fifteen eight-car [[Korail Class 361000|Class 361000]] [[Electric multiple unit|EMU]] trains, out of which only fourteen trains remain in service on the line today.

Currently, Seoul Metropolitan Subway Gyeongchun Line serves mainly Sangbong station to Chuncheon station. Rare service to Cheongnyangni or Kwangwoon University station is also available, making it a Y-shaped line.<ref name="Archived copy"/>
