Had a wonderful time and took lots of wonderful pictures here, definitely worth a try for people who don’t want to book tickets and commute on their own

The Busan Pass can be used for 24 hours upon purchase, which is very convenient. On the first day, I went to the 100-story Haeundae Building, then took a small train, and went to the steam room in the evening. On the second day, I exchanged my ticket for free and took the glass-bottomed crane. It was a great value.

Convenient way to travel from Seoul to Busan or any other city in Korea. Have to take note of the train timing as some train timing takes longer to reach destination.
