Shingiloncheon Station (신길온천역, 新吉溫泉驛, new.happy.hot.springs.station) is a station on line four of the Seoul subway. It is next to Ansan and Jeongwang Station. The name comes from plans to create a hot springs near the station when it was opened, but the plans have been shelved and at present there are no hot springs and no plans to build one. There is a sign in the station to tell people that there are no real hot springs around the station, and some people in the area want the station name changed as a result.
The station also has no relation to Shingil Station on lines 1 and 5.
