🚬 Smoking Areas in Busan
Smoking is only allowed in designated spots — anywhere else risks an on-the-spot fine.
⚠️ Rules & fines
- Smoking in a no-smoking zone can get you an on-the-spot fine of up to ₩100,000 (about US$70), tourists included.
- Vapes and heated tobacco (IQOS, glo) count as smoking. Since 2026 that includes liquid and synthetic-nicotine e-cigarettes too.
- No smoking inside restaurants, cafés, bars, PC rooms or any large building.
- Cities add outdoor no-smoking zones on top: bus stops, parks, plazas and some whole streets. Each city's own no-go spots are listed under that city.
- No smoking within 30 m of kindergartens and daycare centers, or 50 m of school entrances.
Busan Station
Smoking booth
The station's only designated smoking spot: an outdoor booth on your left as you leave by Exit 1, near the taxi stand.
Spots move and close — always look for the smoking-area sign before you light up.
