South Korea is one of countries with the most developed and efficient subway systems in the world. By applying Universal Design principles, the subway stations South Korea can be more functional and more user-friendly for everyone in South Korea. The purpose of this study is to evaluate subway stations facilities in South Korea by Universal Design principles to suggest subway stations design directions in Vietnam. Literature review, case study, and site-visits were used as study methods. The results showed that four subway lines in South Korea appeared high mobility, easy utilization and information. The best elements are found out through the evaluation of installation status of convenient facilities and application of Universal Design principles in subway stations. The best elements on six areas are as follows: Universal movement lines, Universal facilities, Universal walkways, Audio and visual information system, Universal signage, and identifiable stations. The conclusions are that the Universal Design applications of South Korea’s subway station designs are very well, South Korea cases for the experiences of Universal Design can be adaptable in Vietnam’s Subway station design. Therefore, Vietnam government policy for subway stations needs to reflect the Universal Design, and Universal Design principles should be considered in the beginning stage of the planning of the subway stations, and the communications for architects and managers are essential.
