With the collapse of communism in late 1990's, capitalistic economy has triggered a unprecedented economic boom across the world. On the other hand, some negative side effects, such as disparity in wealth, overproduction and overconsumption, had been exposed simultaneously. A series of historic events brought a new economic perspective to the world, called 'sharing economy', with carsharing standing at the forefront of this trend. In this research, it has been analyzed through BC analsysis if car sharing can compete against BRT as a useful transfer mode serving KTX Osong station, and the result finds that it is competitive enough to replace the BRT. In conclusion, it is strongly recommended that a study of establishing economic feasibility criteria for car sharing is required.
