long-distance relations with a significant portion of the journey on the high-speed line, like Seoul–Busan: KTX took both the majority of the market and the bulk of rail passengers in the first year already, increasing the total share of rail from around two-fifths to a market dominating two-thirds by 2008. On long-distance relations with significant distances along conventional lines and resulting more modest travel time gains, that is along the Honam Line, the KTX and overall rail market share gain decreases with distance. On medium-distance relations like Seoul–Daejeon, KTX gained market share mostly at the expense of normal rail express services and air traffic, and helped to increase the total share of rail. On short-distance intercity relations line Seoul–Cheonan, due to the modest gains in time and the location of KTX stops outside city cores, KTX gains were at the expense of conventional rail, while intercity rail's modal share was little changed.<sup id="cite_ref-5years_139-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5years-139"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>139<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEChoChung200829–32_141-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEChoChung200829–32-141"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>141<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>By 2007, provincial airports suffered from deficits after a drop in the number of passengers attributed to the KTX.<sup id="cite_ref-ProvAirport2007_142-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ProvAirport2007-142"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>142<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> With lower ticket prices, by 2008, KTX has swallowed up around half of the airlines' previous demand between Seoul and Busan (falling from 5.3 million passengers in 2003 to 2.4 million).<sup id="cite_ref-143" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-143"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>143<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Though some low-cost carriers failed and withdrew from the route, others still planned to enter competition even at the end of 2008.<sup id="cite_ref-144" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-144"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>144<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Budget airlines achieved a 5.6% growth in August 2009 over the same month a year earlier while KTX ridership decreased by 1.3%, a trend change credited to the opening of <a href="/wiki/Seoul_Subway_Line_9" title="Seoul Subway Line 9">Seoul Subway Line 9</a>, which improved <a href="/wiki/Gimpo_International_Airport" title="Gimpo International Airport">Gimpo International Airport</a>'s connection to southern Seoul.<sup id="cite_ref-145" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-145"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>145<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the first two months after the launch of the second phase of the Gyeongbu HSR, passenger numbers on flights between Gimpo and <a href="/wiki/Ulsan_Airport" title="Ulsan Airport">Ulsan Airports</a> dropped 35.4% compared to the same period a year earlier, those between Gimpo and <a href="/wiki/Pohang_Airport" class="mw-redirect" title="Pohang Airport">Pohang Airports</a> 13.2%.<sup id="cite_ref-tci-p2air_146-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tci-p2air-146"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>146<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Between Gimpo Airport and Busan's <a href="/wiki/Gimhae_International_Airport" title="Gimhae International Airport">Gimhae International Airport</a>, airline passenger numbers remained stable (+0.2%), as a consequence of a budget airline competing with large discounts and aggressive marketing.<sup id="cite_ref-tci-p2air_146-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tci-p2air-146"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>146<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In the first month of Gyeongjeon KTX service, express bus services between Seoul and Masan or Changwon experienced 30–40% drops in ridership.<sup id="cite_ref-147" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-147"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>147<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Technical_and_operational_issues">Technical and operational issues</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Korea_Train_Express&amp;action=edit&amp;section=32" title="Edit section: Technical and operational issues"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="State_of_infrastructure">State of infrastructure</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Korea_Train_Express&amp;action=edit&amp;section=33" title="Edit section: State of infrastructure"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Lawmakers criticised the safety of Korail's tunnels after the Ministry of Construction and Transportation submitted data to the National Assembly on June 13, 2005.
