View original imageOn March 31, the district held a completion ceremony for the “Yongsan Screen Park Golf Samgakji Point” (185 Hangang-daero, B1). The main feature is improved accessibility, as the previously vacant commercial area inside the station was utilized. This project is the result of cooperation between Yongsan-gu and Seoul Metro to find ways to make use of idle spaces.
The facility covers 331.3 square meters and consists of five screen golf bays and a rest area for users. Each bay is equipped with both heating and cooling systems, allowing use regardless of season or weather. Up to four people can use each bay at the same time, and the facility operates on a reservation system in two-hour intervals.
Operating hours are from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday. The facility is closed on Sundays and public holidays. Reservations can be made exclusively online through the “Yongsan-gu Public Sports Facility Integrated Reservation Website”; on-site registration is not accepted.
The district plans to conduct trial operations throughout April to review the operating methods and reservation system, followed by official operations starting in May. During the first half of the year, an additional location—“Yongsan Screen Park Golf Yongsan 2-ga Point” (74 Sinheung-ro 2-gil)—will also open.
