Starlink is set to launch in South Korea, pending regulatory approvals, amid a growing global demand for low-orbit satellite internet services. The Ministry of Science and ICT announced system improvements to support services like Starlink and OneWeb, potentially enhancing connectivity on airplanes and ships. Officials anticipate that domestic services could begin within this year, following amendments to technical standards to minimize interference, though exact timelines remain uncertain due to ongoing consultations. The initiative aims to address connectivity challenges in aviation, maritime sectors, and remote locations.
If we start domestic services, high-speed Wi-Fi services will be available on airplanes, and we will be able to provide online video services (OTT) and video calls to crews on long-haul ships.
It is certain that (the two companies) will launch services this year, but it is difficult to specify a date as changes may occur during the consultation process.
