KT Skylife Expands Commercial Facility Channels to 213 View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] KT Skylife announced on the 18th that it will significantly expand and reorganize its products for commercial facilities such as nationwide lodging businesses, hospitals, and gyms, as well as multi-family residences like one-room apartments and officetels.


First, the Android Biz product Biz All will be integrated into a single offering, and considering the diverse viewing preferences of Biz customers, the number of channels has been increased from 200 to 213. With this reorganization, Biz-exclusive OTT services have also become available. Currently, the OTT services available include ‘CineHotel,’ which offers a total of about 550 movies and adult content, and ‘WaveOn,’ which provides 300,000 TV catch-up programs including terrestrial, general programming, and overseas series, as well as about 3,300 free movies.


The Biz-exclusive OTT services can be selected per room upon product subscription, making it cost-effective. Biz customers operating businesses such as lodging facilities also have the advantage of offering rooms with added OTT services as a premium service to consumers. The UI (user interface) has also been newly revamped. By introducing a Biz-exclusive UI, promotional images and notices for the business can be applied on the main screen. Customers can choose between the basic UI and a customized UI according to the characteristics of their business in the screen settings.


The newly reorganized Biz product ‘Biz All’ costs 7,700 KRW per room per month (including VAT, with a 3-year contract), and if customers opt for a rate benefit instead of a gift, it can be used at a rate in the 4,000 KRW range per room. Additionally, if both OTT services ‘CineHotel’ and ‘WaveOn’ are added, customers can use 213 channels including 6 UHD channels, movies, adult content, and unlimited TV catch-up all for under 10,000 KRW per room.



Won Sung-woon, Head of Skylife Customer Division, stated, “Not only general customers but also customers who own businesses and those living in one-room apartments or officetels have had their needs actively reflected, and by applying OTT services to Biz products, the Biz product has been significantly upgraded. We will continue to develop and strengthen products to provide competitive and differentiated services to Biz customers.”
