Hyehwa Station (Korean: 혜화역) is a station on the Seoul Subway Line 4 in Jongno District, Seoul. It is located in the center of the area commonly known as Daehangno, and much of the ridership of this station comes from the nightlife scene. The Seoul National University Yongon campus, housing its Hospital and School of Medicine, is located to the southwest.

The station was the center of the 2018–2019 Hyehwa Station protest to rally against discrimination of women and spy camera crimes.
