The EverLine Rapid Transit System will be a fully automated 18.5-kilometre rapid transit system in the city of Yongin, South Korea connecting the Everland amusement park to the Seoul Metropolitan Subway. The new line will serve 15 stations. The mostly elevated system will use Bombardier Advanced Rapid Transit vehicles controlled by Bombardier CITYFLO 650 automatic train control technology.

In July 2004, the city of Yongin awarded the contract for the line to Yongin LRT Consortium, of which Bombardier Transportation is the lead member.

Ground was broken for construction in November 2005.

Since November 2009 the operating company has conducted trial runs of the trains. The line was due to open in July 2010, but was delayed. The current opening date is unknown due to construction, noise complaints, and ongoing litigation in the International Chapter of the International Arbitration Court (국제중제법원 국제 중재)[1]. The opening was planned to coincide with a southern extension of the Bundang Line creating a transfer station between the two lines.

In July 2011 subway maps in Seoul have been updated to include station names and numbers for the EverLine Rapid Transit System. However station #116 was not included in these updated maps.

The opening is now set for April 2013.[2]
