The South Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has recently revealed a new high-speed train named ‘KTX-Cheongryong’ which can reach a top speed of 320 km/h. KTX, short for Korea Train Express, is South Korea’s high-speed rail system and is operated by Korail.

The Cheongryong, the newest bullet train in South Korea, is faster than the previous KTX model, which enables passengers to travel from Seoul to Busan in approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes, and from Yongsan to Gwangju in about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
