Hello ~
I have registered online for a Korea Rail Pass e-voucher which I will exchange for the KR Pass when I reach Seoul in a few weeks. I want to use the KR Pass to reserve round trip first class train travel between Seoul and Gyeongju. Can this be done in advance of my departure for Seoul or do I have to wait until I exchange the e-voucher for the KR Pass and then purchase (either online or in person) the tickets I want? If the latter is true, will First Class tickets at the times I want to go still be available? How jammed are the trains? Thank you!

Any information re: reserving train travel via KR Pass would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Mac,
I don't know anything about the Korea Rail Pass, but I understand that the Chuseok holiday (Sept 21-23) ties up travel options that week. It's the Korean Thanksgiving, I believe, and many,many people travel to be with family.
You can check the KTX website for ticket availability
Wishing you good luck!
