[Asia Economy Reporter Seulgina Cho] KT announced on the 30th that it will enhance membership benefits for customers in celebration of Family Month. In line with the increased home-around consumption trend due to the impact of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), KT is also introducing additional benefits that can be easily enjoyed at home or nearby.

KT has strengthened gift discount benefits so customers can express gratitude to family and acquaintances during social distancing. For customers looking for gifts for Parents' Day or anniversaries, KT is partnering with the online flower delivery company ‘Kkukka’ to offer up to 9,000 KRW discount on ‘Carnation Bouquets’ and ‘Season Best Bouquets’ throughout May. Additionally, customers purchasing books worth over 30,000 KRW at the online bookstore Interpark can receive a 4,000 KRW discount.

KT is also offering discounts on ‘Catch Call X Ring to You X Monthly 1 Song (Basic Pack Plus)’ so users can play their favorite music as a call ringtone to acquaintances. This can be used by deducting 100% of membership points for two months. A free Ring to You 1-song gift promotion for Parents' Day and a new subscription event offering a Starbucks Americano gift card (1 cup, 500 winners by lottery) are also underway.

Additionally, customers can receive a 3,000 KRW discount when purchasing over 20,000 KRW at health & beauty stores Lalavla and over 25,000 KRW at LOHB’s. Gmarket offers up to 7,000 KRW discount (VIP Choice) benefits.

KT has also prepared benefits for the rapidly increasing home-around consumption due to social distancing. Premium ice cream Natuur can be purchased at half price at nearby convenience store GS25, and Pizza Hut premium pizzas are also available at half price. To enjoy the latest movies at home, KT is running the ‘Our Home Latest Cinema’ event, providing 5,000 KRW Olleh TV coupons. This event runs from May 4, and TV coupons can be obtained on the KT Membership website or app.

Untact benefits for VVIP customers are also provided. Through the May VVIP Special Benefit, customers can receive a mug from the specialty coffee brand Blue Bottle delivered to their home. Applications are open from May 1 to 10 on the KT Membership website or app, with 1,000 winners selected by lottery.
