The two cable cars have different rules for pets, wheelchairs, and strollers
- Duryunsan Cable Car (061-534-8992) does not allow ordinary pets, but guide dogs for the visually impaired may ride (operator's FAQ and user guide). There is no notice saying that pets may ride in a carrier or that carriers are lent.

- Large pets that do not fit in a carrier may have difficulty riding, and guide dogs may ride (operator's FAQ). This carrier rule is a notice from Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car, and Duryunsan Cable Car has no such notice.
- Myeongnyang Marine Cable Car's operator FAQ says you can borrow a standard wheelchair to ride, while powered wheelchairs are difficult to take on board.
- Haenam County Culture and Tourism, however, lists wheelchair rental as 'not available,' so the sources differ.
