You can either go from B1 or from the first floor after taking that escalator you can see from this picture. You can find the entrance for SM Artium right next to this signboard saying Starfield COEX Mall. Of course, KPOP is a huge industry in Korea now, but even so, locating SM Artium in this kind of fancy and tall building is still amazing. I wanted to show how tall the buildings were! I felt SM Ent’s power once again after seeing this building. There are already too many shops, such as H&M, McDonald’s, and Boots on the ground floor even before entering the mall.

There are many companies here, so many office workers visit on weekdays. There were many people even though it was lunchtime on weekdays. This might be the first view when you completely go through the passage from the station and get outside of it. Find the word, COEX This mall is connected to COEX, as well(It’s almost impossible to separate them), and it’s managed by Intercontinental Group. No worries even though you don’t know any Korean. The day I visited was so sunny, that I took a lot of selfies LOL Apologies in advance for many selfies. Maybe your favorite idol or actor’s face will come out! I saw A-pink’s face on it! So pretty 🙂 If you find this signboard, you’re almost there! Just go through the passage of the picture above, then you’ll be connected to the outside. There is also a billboard in the aisle of the subway station. You don’t have to go outside to find the COEX! It’s connected through an underground passage. You can follow the direction that says Starfield Coex. Starfield is the name of the company that currently has a stake in COEX. You just need to follow the way out direction to COEX. There’s passage directly connected to COEX from the subway station. See Also: Best Shopping Place In Seoul! Everything About COEX Mall #COEX #Starfield Library You can go out of exit 5 or exit 6. I visited by Seoul Metro line 2, so I got off at Samseong station. Often times, people say that even native Seoulites get lost at COEX Mall, Express Bus Terminal, and Seoul Station, and I could totally understand the reason. In fact, it was the first time to go inside COEX since the renovation, and I was literally shocked at the hugeness of the mall. The COEX complex renovation was completed on 27 November 2014.īorn in 1992, I still vividly remember the renovation of COEX. Construction costs amounted to ₩140 billion.

Construction of the mall began in May 1997 and finished in April 2000. Bongeunsa station(line 9) is connected to the North Exit. Millennium Square is the main exit of COEX Mall connecting with Samseong station(line 2).
