DUR (Deep Underground Railways) stations, such as Suseo Station in Korea, present unique evacuation challenges stemming from multi-level spatial depth, long vertical circulation paths, and rapid smoke spread dynamics. Conventional design guidelines often fail to capture these complexities, underscoring the need for advanced, simulation-driven safety evaluation frameworks. This study proposes a comprehensive Digital Twin-based methodology that integrates spatial topology modeling, agent-based evacuation simulation, and dynamic hazard-aware routing. A multi-layer map topology was constructed from high-fidelity architectural geometry, decomposing the station into functional regions and encoding connectivity across platforms, concourses, corridors, and vertical circulation elements. Real-time hazard conditions were reflected through dynamic adjustments to edge weights, allowing evacuation paths to adapt to blocked exits, fire shutter operations, and smoke-infiltrated domains. Ten evacuation scenarios were developed to assess sensitivity to fire origin, exit availability, vertical circulation failures, and onboard passenger loads. Simulation results reveal that evacuation performance is primarily constrained by vertical circulation bottlenecks, with emergency stairways (E1 and E2) serving as critical choke points under high-density conditions. Cases involving exit closures or fire-compartment failures produced significant delays, frequently exceeding NFPA 130 and KRCODE performance criteria. Conversely, guided evacuation strategies demonstrated marked improvements, reducing congestion and enabling compliance with platform evacuation thresholds even in full-load scenarios. These findings highlight the necessity of transitioning from static design evaluations toward Digital Twin-enabled, predictive safety management. The proposed framework enables real-time visualization, intervention testing, and operator decision support, offering a scalable foundation for next-generation evacuation planning in extreme-depth railway infrastructures.
