Airport to the shopping area on the east side of Yongsan is between 45 mins to 1 1/2 hours depending on traffic. Beware of August travel...it took us 2 1/2 hours to check-in and make it to the gate because of all the folks traveling to the US. If we hadn't asked to cut a couple of lines based on our departure time, it probably would have taken closer to 4 hours.
