Incheon International Airport Corp. accepted bids to find an operator for the terminal last December and January this year, but had not found an appropriate partner. Korail, which operates the KTX station in Gwangmyeong, agreed to operate the terminal as well as the station.
According to Incheon Airport, the city terminal will provide convenience for visitors to the airport coming from areas south of Seoul.
