History

July 2, 1999: Business began with the opening of the Jamsil-Amsa section of Seoul Subway Line 8.
The history of Gangdong-gu Office begins in 1963, when Seoul was greatly expanded, with Cheonho Branch Office under Seongdong-gu Office, which oversaw Songpa-gu and Gangdong-su. Later, in 1975, the area south of the Han River in Seongdong-gu was divided into Gangnam-gu, and Cheonho Branch Office came under Gangnam-gu Office. Four years later, in 1979, Gangdong-gu was divided. At that time, they tried to expand the Cheonho Branch Office building and use it as a district office, but the building was too small and was too far to the east, so Seoul Gangdong Police Station was built along with the current district office in a rice paddy at the end of Seongnae-dong. After Songpa-gu was divided in the late 1980s, Gangdong Fire Station, Gangdong Health Center, and Waterworks Office were built next to the district office.

The platform is operated as a two-sided, two-wire platform and is equipped with a screen door.
