'''Bokjeong station''' is a station on [[Seoul Subway Line 8]] and the [[Suin-Bundang Line]]. This station has one of the most sophisticated and convenient transfer systems in the [[Seoul Metropolitan Subway]] in which the Suin–Bundang Line platform is directly beneath the Line 8 platform. Passengers can transfer between the lines simply by taking one flight of stairs/escalators. However, since the station is situated directly below a major [[highway interchange]] with no nearby residential or industrial area, the vicinity of the station has no significant source of passengers, so this station is used mainly as a transfer point.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://terms.naver.com/entry.nhn?cid=40942&docId=1383477&categoryId=34709|title=복정역|website=terms.naver.com|language=ko|trans-title=Bokjeong Station|access-date=2019-05-31}}</ref>

The only aboveground section of Line 8 lies at [[Namwirye station|Namwirye]], although this station & [[Sanseong station|Sanseong]] are situated underground.

The station is within walking distance of [[Seoul International School]] in the city of [[Seongnam]]; this station is on the border between [[Seoul]] and [[Seongnam]].
