For a large suitcase, late-night pickup, or a hotel change, choose a staffed facility or luggage delivery. The most convenient <strong>Seoul luggage storage<\/strong> is usually near Seoul Station (\uc11c\uc6b8\uc5ed), Myeong-dong Station (\uba85\ub3d9\uc5ed), or Hongik Univ. Station (\ud64d\ub300\uc785\uad6c\uc5ed), depending on where your day ends.<\/p>\n<p>Do not assume every station has a large empty locker.
