Overview

During construction, the station name was Yeongseon Station. It is easily accessible since it is only about 230m away from Daegu University of Education.

It is a midnight train station on the train going up line 1, and the last train to Seolhwa Myeonggok runs until 23:55 minutes. The next morning, a train to Anseom departs from this station for the first time. When the Daegu subway fire broke out on February 18, 2003, the route between Myeongdeok and Sincheon was suspended for 8 months, and it was used as the starting point for a shuttle bus connecting the sections after the train stopped at this station.
