Seodongtan Station (Korean서동탄역) is a station on Line 1 of the Seoul Metropolitan Subway. It serves the cities of Hwaseong and Osan in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. The station takes its name (literally West Dongtan) from its local area of the city of Hwaseong, but straddles the border with Osan, in which it is mostly located and its postal address lies.
