I think people who are looking for KTX standing SRT standing seats are probably people who need to travel at the desired time but are unable to secure a seat.
If you didn’t have time and only purchased a one-way ticket, or reservations were fierce and you inevitably only had a one-way ticket for Chuseok trains,
It is important to first check whether the KTX SRT train you are planning to board is available for seating.
If there are, you should go to the station right away and check whether there are any remaining standing tickets.
Difference between standing and unreserved seats
A standing ticket is a ticket issued without seat designation when all seats for the section you wish to use are sold.
For both KTX and regular trains, a 15% discount is provided on the basic seat fare.
Non-reserved seats are available during rush hours from Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.
There are no assigned seats and a 5% discount is provided on the regular seat fare.
Both standing and non-reserved seats must be boarded in the corresponding car, and standing seats cannot be reissued, delivered, returned, or forwarded.
The difference between standing and non-reserved seats is that the person who gets the non-reserved seats first becomes the owner of the seat.
ITX standing room reservation
If you open the app to reserve KTX tickets but they are all sold out, you can still purchase ITX youth unreserved seats.
ITX youth unreserved seats can only be purchased within the station, and remaining seats can only be found within the station.
You can purchase it at a ticket window or unmanned ticket machine in the station, so if you want to reserve an ITX standing room ticket, go straight to the station.

Arrive at a station where ITX Youth is available and go straight to the ticket purchase area.
All you have to do is enter your purchase ticket information, select a non-reserved seat, and receive a ticket.
Reserve ITX 2nd floor seats
Some trains have second-floor seats, but only economy seats are shown on the app or website, so the second-floor seats may not be immediately visible.
After searching for the desired ITX route on the Korail Talk / Let’s Korail website, there is an option to change economy class seats to second-floor seats.
The prices for economy class and 2nd floor seats are the same, but the 2nd floor offers a little more elegance, right? (Go to Korail Talk Reservation)

If you can’t get a Chuseok train ticket, the rule of thumb is to get a non-reserved seat, but some people say they use expedient methods such as purchasing a ticket on the train without a ticket or extending the ticket after purchasing a short distance ticket.
Please do not use non-reserved seats in an unscrupulous manner and make sure to reserve train tickets in the correct way.
Oh, and to celebrate the Chuseok golden holiday,
Did you know that the government is handing out accommodation coupons and Chuseok consolation prizes?
I hope you take care of yourselves and have a more prosperous Chuseok.
