Transfers to the [[Seoul Metropolitan Subway]] can be made via [[Bupyeong station|Bupyeong Station]] to [[Seoul Subway Line 1]], as well as the [[Suin Line]] to Seoul at [[Woninjae station|Woninjae Station]]. A trip along the line from Gyeyang in the north to International Business District in the south takes approximately 57 minutes. The color of the line is light blue. A one-station extension to [[Gyeyang station|Gyeyang]] opened in March 2007, providing transfers to [[AREX]]. A six-station south extension opened in June 2009. The line uses 34 8-car trains. The first 25 trains were built between 1998 and 1999 by Daewoo Heavy Industries and Rotem, while the last 9 trains were built between 2007 and 2008 by [[Hyundai Rotem]] to provide trains following the extension of the line. ===Line 2=== {{main|Incheon Subway Line 2}} '''Line 2''' is a {{convert|29.1|km|mi|adj=on|sp=us}} north-south [[Medium-capacity rail transport system|light metro]] line. After seven years of construction, the line opened for regular service on July 30, 2016. There are transfer points at [[Geomam station|Geomam]] (with [[AREX]]), [[Juan Station|Juan]] (with [[Seoul Subway Line 1]]), and [[Incheon City Hall Station|Incheon City Hall]] (with Incheon Line 1). Line 2 has aboveground sections north of Asiad Stadium. The color of the line is Orange. The line uses 37 2-car trains, all of which were built in 2013 by Hyundai Rotem. === Seoul Metro Line 7 === {{main|Seoul Subway Line 7}}Line 7 on the Seoul Subway was extended beyond [[Onsu Station]] with 9 additional stations beyond Seoul City and into Incheon on October 27, 2012. The {{convert|10.2|km|mi|adj=on|sp=us}} extension had ended at [[Bupyeong-gu Office Station]], meeting [[Incheon Subway Line 1]]. On May 22, 2021, Line 7 was extended deeper into Incheon with the opening of the {{convert|3.94|km|mi|adj=on|sp=us}} extension to [[Seongnam station (Incheon)|Seongnam]]. The section of the line in Incheon and Bucheon Cities are operated by [[Incheon Transit Corporation]] with their own fleet of Incheon Transit Corporation SR000 series trains, and both fleets [[through service]] into each other's portion of the line. Future plans call for the relevant portion of the line to extended all the way to [[Cheongna International City station]], with transfers available to [[AREX]].
