Intercity train routes across the nation that were suspended over the weekend due to torrential rains will partially resume on Monday.

The state-run rail operator, Korea Railroad Corporation(KORAIL), said that Saemaeul, Mugunghwa and ITX services will resume for some sections of the Gyeongbu, Jeolla, Daegu, Gyeongjeon routes.

KORAIL said the number of trains in operation will be lower than unusual in light of delays caused by trains running at reduced speeds.

The Jungang, Janghang, Honam, Chungbuk, Yeongdong, Taebaek and Gyeongbuk routes will remain suspended for safety concerns. In particular, Yeongdong and Chungbuk routes hit hard by torrential rains are expected to be suspended for one or two months.

High-speed KTX trains will operate on most routes except the Jungang Line and the routes that pass through the Suwon and Seodaejeon stations.
