The future is South Korea

Tech firms try out latest in world's

most wired societyMarch 13, 2005"It's still much more popular in Korea," said

Brooke Richardson, MSN lead product

manager. "It's not only that the U.S. is not so

advanced in broadband. Mobile phone usage

is not so high here either. MSN is bridging the

two worlds of PCs and mobile phones, and

Korea has that connectivity. We have

incubated some of our stuff in Korea, like

mobile instant messaging and mobile e-mail.

We have also launched services there that the

rest of the world was not ready for."

Lessons from South Korea:When Broadband Meets the Mass Market

Indeed, some operators are struggling to generate net

revenue growth from the switch to broadband, and

almost all countries still have a long way to go before

broadband becomes a mass-market phenomenon.

The lone exception is South Korea.

Korea’s experience has important implications for

other countries. We will focus here on three critical

questions: What has caused the rapid penetration in

Korea? How has broadband changed consumer

behavior? And which players are likely to make

money from broadband?

Broadband's future: Lessons from South KoreaFor years, the telecom industry has scrutinized developments

in South Korea, where a combination of public support and strong demand has created the world's most ubiquitous broadband network. Now that the market is saturated, there are new lessons to be learned from the South Korean experience. South Korea's broadband providers can no longer rely on higher subscriptions to fuel profitability. Instead, they must look for new growth engines, such as home networking and faster broadband, and develop skills beyond building and running a vast network. Their triumphs and failures will continue to provide lessons for the industry in other countries.

CERTIFICATIONThe U.S. government is seriously concerned

that a pattern of exclusionary practices is

starting to emerge

in the setting of standards for new

technologies in the field of next generation

mobile communications.

Telecommunication

As one of the world's most advanced

telecommunications markets, Korea is actively

commercializing a

variety of cutting-edge wireless technologies,

such as IMT 2000, cdma2000 1ev-do, and W-

CDMA, as well as introducing terrestrial and

satellite-based digital TV broadcasting.

South Korea leads the wayJuly 28, 2004"I didn't realize how much the Web had to offer until I got to Korea," said Renck, a programmer by training. "I couldn't appreciate it until I got here and saw what true high-speed access does to change your perception of how fast information truly moves.“Cumulative revenue from online content has similarly exploded. Companies that provide online games and services like the Cyworld blogging site have penetrated all segments of society and become a national obsession. Corporate executives chronicle their daily lives through blogs.

Industry observers generally agree that mobile-video services for both 3G and DMB have been financially disappointing. "We are very good at making technology and new services," says Chung Yun-ho, a telecom industry consultant and managing partner of Seoul-based consulting firm Veyond Partners. “But considering the business model wisely is not something we are good at."

In a statement, the commission said WIPI had brought some efficiency to South Korea’s cell phone market but left it out of step with the global development of phones based on newer types of software. “ The abolition of this rule means this market is going to be more globalised “ said Chung Yunho and industry consultant at Veyond Partners in Seoul.
