I have an event in Yeoncheon, South Korea (near the North / South border). My flight takes me to Incheon Airport, then I need to somehow get from there to Yeoncheon. I've researched and there doesn't seem like a lot of options; either train or bus is going to take multiple transits and probably at least 4 hours to get there.

  1. Can I take a taxi at Incheon Airport and ask the driver to take me there? Will the driver be willing me to go to a destination that's so far away?
  2. Considering it's around 2~3 hours drive, how much will it cost?
  3. If a direct taxi ride is impossible, which "taxi hubs" should I go to get there with multiple taxi rides?

You probably want to ride the Airport bus from the ICN to Dongducheon (#7001)- the closest town to Yeoncheon, and take a taxi from there. It will save you time, money, and headaches.

::EDIT::

I am sorry that I did not carefully read your question. There is a way to get there. You can use what is referred to as "콜택시" and reserve a ride with a fixed price. Only operates in Korean, so ask a friend to arrange it if you can't yourself. enter image description here

You can get to Seoul by any taxi and then get International Taxi from there: https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Seoul/Yeoncheon-gun-Gyeonggi-do-South-Korea

But have your addresses writen in Korean on a piece of paper or in a mobile phone because almost no taxi driver in Korea speaks english.
