Geumho Station (Korean금호역) is a station on the Seoul Subway Line 3 in Seongdong District, Seoul, South Korea.[3][1] The name of the station literally means "golden lake", although there is no lake to be found today in the neighborhood of this station. The short piece of road under which this station is built is situated between two consecutive road tunnels nearby.
