KT announced on the 1st that it will expand its roaming benefits exclusively for China and Japan during the summer vacation season and conduct special promotions for customers.
KT has improved the data usage convenience of its exclusive products so that customers can use roaming services more conveniently and economically in China and Japan, which are the most popular travel destinations. Previously, the affordable roaming for China and Japan provided 2.5GB of data for 25,000 won (5 days) and was automatically blocked upon depletion, but now users can continue using data at a speed of 400Kbps.
KT will double the benefits through a promotion until October 31. Customers who subscribe to the affordable roaming for China and Japan will receive a total of 5GB of data by adding 2.5GB to the basic 2.5GB, and 60 minutes of free roaming voice calls are also offered. All these benefits will be automatically applied to subscribers.
Additionally, KT plans to maintain cooperation with China Mobile in China and NTT Docomo in Japan and provide shopping and dining benefits through the collaboration of the three companies.
The ‘Shared Roaming’ product allows one subscriber to share data with up to 5 lines, making it useful for travel companions. It offers plans ranging from 4GB to 12GB, and customers under the age of 34 can enjoy greater benefits.
The voice and text roaming service ‘Secure Roaming’ is also gaining popularity. This service is automatically applied without a separate application, allowing calls and texts at domestic rates in 64 countries worldwide.
