Disputes and controversies [ edit ]

Legislators and other officials from urban areas in the region served are conflicting over station placement. [2] For example, the Goryeong County government has encouraged a station to be built there based on the history of the area. [3]

Originally, the line was planned to terminate at Gimcheon?Gumi station but was later shifted to Gimcheon, which is not currently served by a high-speed line. There are suspicions that National Assembly member Song Eon-seok advocated for the move because his family owns a commercial building across from the station. [4] [5]
