History

In 2007, Seoul Metro ordered a first batch comprising 34 ten-car trains (3-01~3-15, 3-21~3-33, 3-37~3-40, and 3-49) from Hyundai Rotem.[1] The trains were delivered in from 2009 to 2010 and replaced aging 1st batch standardized wide-width trains.

In 2019, Seoul Metro ordered a second batch comprising 15 ten-car trains (3-16~3-20, 3-34~3-35, 3-41~3-48) from Dawonsys.[2] The six-car trains will replace aging 2nd batch wide-width trains and rebuilt trains formed from newer standardized wide-width cars.
