Subway in Yangsan, South Korea

For some reason – I’ll never be sure why – a business owner saw fit to open a Subway restaurant in our little city of Yangsan, South Korea. There are no Subway sandwich places in Busan yet. In fact, I think they were only in Seoul – until now! We are extremely excited about this! One of the things we miss most from home is a good sandwich. Having a Subway in Korea is good, in Busan would be fantastic, but having it inexplicably open up here in Yangsan? That’s amazing! Naturally, we’ve spent a large portion of our time there over the last few weeks. On nearly every visit we’ve made to the Yangsan Subway, we’ve run into another foreigner doing the same! The Yangsan Subway has become a foreigner Mecca. With that in mind, we’ve decided to post some directions.

Directions to Subway in Yangsan

Those of you who live in Busan can come visit our amazing Subway and satiate your sandwich craving just by riding line 2 (green) all the way to the north end. Get off at the last stop – Yangsan Station. From there it’s just a short walk to sandwich heaven. Here’s a map to help you!

But.. is it good?

Listen, like all chains that move abroad, some things are not quite like we remember them. Subway Korea is legit, though. They have almost everything you remember from back home, right down to the guacamole. All the breads are available. Almost all the basic sandwiches are there, and so are a few of the fancy ones. They even have Dr. Pepper – seriously. The cookies are perfect. The chips? Well, they’re Korean across the board, but hey, you can’t win ‘em all! If you’ve been in Korea for a while and you’re in desperate need of a real sandwich, come to Yangsan and eat at Subway! You’re bound to run into some other cool, sandwich-loving foreigners while you’re there.

Subway! Sandwiches! In Yangsan! Korea! Ah!
