Line 2 was planned to open in August 2014, but the opening date was pushed back to July 30, 2016.

The ITC Line2 is a driverless, fully automatic subway system. The line uses 37 two-car trains, all of which were built in 2013 by Hyundai Rotem, a member of Hyundai Motor Group.{{cite journal|url=http://www.railwaygazette.com/news/single-view/view//incheon-metro-line-2-signalling-contract-awarded.html|title=Incheon metro Line 2 signalling contract awarded|journal=Railway Gazette International|date=February 9, 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110715161820/http://www.railwaygazette.com/news/single-view/view/incheon-metro-line-2-signalling-contract-awarded.html|archive-date=July 15, 2011}}[http://imrt2.hiconst.com/sub02_01.html The specification of the cars of Incheon Subway Line 2] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711164738/http://imrt2.hiconst.com/sub02_01.html |date=2011-07-11 }} They are similar to the Canada Line cars in Vancouver, Canada, albeit using the narrow light metro body ({{Cvt|2.65|m|ftin}}) and external sliding doors as opposed to the heavy metro wide body {{Cvt|3|m|ftin}} and pocket doors, and using a bottom contact third rail instead of the North American top contact.

Currently, all stations are long enough to fit four-car trains (two sets mated together); however, current operations use two-car trains (one set per train).

SelTrac CBTC is currently being implemented on the line by Thales, along with an urban rail traffic management system; these systems will allow the trains to be driverless.

All stations are in Incheon.
