Unless you live near the train stations, going by bus could be faster. Buses are about 8,000-12,000 won and take about 2.5 hours. Slow trains are about the same cost and the express trains go in 55 minutes for about 20,000 won. It depends on how and how quickly you’d like to get there.

Unless you are coming to Korea during the very busy season (new year and Chu seok, which is Korean Thanksgiving), there will not be to much traffic and buses will be fine too. and try to get the express buses, as it is much much faster. (there isn't much price differences, only few dollars). I've visited nearly all the cities that you have listed (of course, I am a Korean lol) but my fav was Damyang and Boseong. Take lots and lots of pics! and try the bamboo rice when you go to Damyang. It is just yum!!!!! I wish I can help you guys out more, but I do not live in Daejeon and do not know much about the city but since I am in Seoul, Maybe I could help with that. Cheers, Rena Hello Fiona,
