South Korea is characterized by one of the most unique telecommunications markets in the world. Following its liberalization the sphere has become flexible and highly developed, with companies eager to further enhance their capabilities. The interest of private companies is steadily fuelled by the government, and its branch in telecommunications industry, KCC (Korea Communications Commission), which follows the trend of best quality for best rates and continually encourages the development by issuing licenses. Fixed-line telephony sector faces gradual decline due to increasing popularity of VoIP services and recently introduced number portability, which is expected to give the customers freedom to decide whether they want to use a fixed-line telephone or rely on VoIP. The main technology applied in mobile telephony is CDMA (now W-CDMA) standard, which was originally created and implemented in South Korea. The country currently produces mobile devices compatible with the technology used, and they are distributed not only in South Korea, but are famous and popular throughout the world. Until recently, there was no access for foreign devices, but the regulation issued allowed them to be introduced, in order to widen the industry margins. Mobile operators have already switched to 3G technology, and now can boast rather high country penetration. With the deployment of 3G, HSDPA and then HSUPA were brought to the stage, and mobile broadband has received more attention.

The incumbent, SK Telecom, still dominates telecommunications market, including mobile telephony sphere, where it accounts for more than half of total market share. The company has a long history connected directly with deployment of first CDMA network, and market's progress, and is now famous for offering its services not only locally but internationally. KT, namely its mobile subsidiary KTF, takes the second place in the rating with 31% of market share, and following its merge with the parent company will represent the leading force together with SK Telecom. The third major player is LG Telecom which is, however, expected to lose its market share to KT in the following years, and now accounts for 18% of market share. South Korea is also characterized by strong broadband industry, with ISPs gradually moving from ADSL to VDSL technology, and implementing FttH services along with other contemporary technologies. Network penetration in South Korea is considered to be the highest among world developed countries, with almost 90% of houses having broadband connection.
