Daegok station (Korean: 대곡역) is a station on Seoul Subway Line 3, Seoul Subway GTX-A Line, the Gyeongui–Jungang Line and the Seohae Line. It is located in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea.[2] It is mainly used as a transfer station between the four lines rather than as an actual enter-and-exit stop, as the station is located in the midst of farmland with very little local resident demand.

Effective December 28, 2024, the platforms for the GTX-A higher speed commuter rail line began operation.[3]
