About This Race
The JTBC Seoul Marathon is Korea's most popular fall marathon, organized by JTBC, one of Korea's major broadcasting companies. Starting in front of Sangam World Cup Stadium, the course takes runners through scenic Seoul neighborhoods along the Han River. With 80% of participants in their 20s and 30s, it has a youthful energy unlike any other Korean marathon. Registration via raffle sells out instantly each year due to overwhelming demand. The event offers both a full marathon and a 10km distance, with the marathon route ending at Yeouido Park.
