'서울의 길목'으로 상징되는 서울역은 지난 100여년 동안 우리 현대사의 영욕과 함께 하며, 서울을 대표하는 대중교통의 중심지로 대변되어 왔다. 그리고 현재 프랑스, 일본, 독일, 스페인에 이어 세계 5번째로 시속 300km의 꿈의 속도를 자랑하는 고속철도(KTX)를 보유하게 됨에 따라 국가적 위상과 국민의 자긍심을 드높일 수 있는 새로운 역사 건립이 필요하게 되었다. 또한, 강북의 새로운 문화창조와 서울의 교통중심지로서의 역할의 중요성에 따른 도시의 균형적 발전을 위해 지하철 고객편의를 위한 환승통로, 대중교통(버스.택시)과 연계되는 승강장 신설 등의 기능을 포함한 약 30,000평 규모의 판매 및 영업시설을 갖춘 새로운 서울역을 건립하게 되었다.

The total number of passengers on the KTX since its construction in 2004 surpassed 500 million in October, 2015. The operation of KTX made it possible to reach anywhere in a country in half a day, which subsequently altered people's lifestyle. As the KTX has become an important mode of transportation, there is a growing interest in the optimal size and location of its stations. Currently, the stations are constructed through public-private partnerships since a sufficient amount of budget is hard to secure only from the public sector; however, because railway stations are traditionally aimed at promoting public interests, an emphasis on the profitability of the private sector could compromise public interests. At this juncture, this study separately computes the number of users based on each of the two primary functions of the stations-as a railway station and as a sales facility-and estimates the numbers of people according to various transportation modes that are taken to access the stations. This estimation is applied to the case of Dongdaegu Station, which will open in 2016. Such an application helps to predict and respond to possible congestion as brought about by the expansion of the sales facility.

A station is not only the public space where socially diverse classes get together and cultural interchanges occur but also the personal and emotional space where the meeting and parting occur for each individual. Thus, it is necessity to consider this dual point from the beginning of the plan to make the simple, comfortable, intuitive and friendly environment for the users in the station. Also, it should be capable of active life style of moderner according to the change of the city environment. Furthermore, as a station is not just a single-purpose space anymore but the versatile space where fulfills the user's needs for the multi-function and the desire for diversity. As the station in these days opened 24 hours for users with the modern, commercial and cultural facilities, the interior design for a station needs to be designed to be easy to use, functional and able to vitalize the environment. In order to make a desirable interior environment in a station, first of all, it is required to grasp the characteristic of the space by analyzing the phenomena of an individual or a group act in a existing space formed by the interrelation between the human and the environment. To reduce the resistance against the new environment from the user, in other words, to increase the satisfaction, it is necessity to induce the behavior of the users to the desirable way toward to the new environment. Consequently, positive methodology with recognitive approach through cognitive psychology, spatial behavior research is required.
