Talk about how you get Internet access on you phone.

 

Wireless communications in Korea are cutting-edge.

Korea commercialized its 5G network last year, a world first.

5G is much quicker than earlier networks, so you can do a lot more with your mobile devices.

Most public spaces like schools, office building, coffee shops, and hotels offer Wi-Fi access.

You can even use wireless Internet in moving bullet trains.

Many people use unlimited data plans, so they can use all the data they need.
