Seoul Metropolitan Government's Future Heritage listing identifies Dongjak Station on subway Lines 4 and 9 as an approach to Seoul National Cemetery. It also lists the Dongjak Station/National Cemetery bus stops, with an indicative walk of about 2–10 minutes. The grounds contain several burial and memorial areas, so confirm your intended memorial and route after reaching the entrance. The city listing also identifies parking as free, but check current parking hours and access restrictions directly before travel; the historic listing is not a live availability notice.
