[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] SK Telecom announced on the 24th that it will provide the 'Tium YouTube Live Tour,' which allows anyone to easily experience the world and technology 30 years in the future, free of charge to the Gyeonggi Content Agency via YouTube.


The 'Tium YouTube Live Tour' will be used as content for the '2021 Visiting Virtual Reality (VR)·Augmented Reality (AR) Experience Center' operated by the Gyeonggi Content Agency. The visiting experience center offers various VR·AR content in fields such as job training, cultural experiences, and cognitive training to support digitally vulnerable groups in Gyeonggi Province and residents who have difficulty going outside due to COVID-19. SK Telecom provides a dedicated session that allows special classes and educational institutions connected to the Gyeonggi Content Agency to make priority reservations for the 'Tium YouTube Live Tour' and offers customized tours tailored to the nature of the participating institutions.


The Tium YouTube Live Tour is approximately 30 minutes long and features real-time video streaming set in the future city of 2051, allowing participants to vividly experience future ICT technologies such as ▲ ultra-high-speed networks and artificial intelligence used for space and Earth environment monitoring ▲ rescue of stranded persons using drones and AR (augmented reality) ▲ remote hologram meetings. In particular, the tour is an interactive content experience where participants can ask questions and receive answers in real time through a chat window with two docents who possess expert knowledge about the story and technology of 'Tium,' enabling a vivid experience of advanced future technologies.


The Tium YouTube Live Tour is also available to the general public by making a reservation through the reservation page on the Tium website. The 2021 Visiting AR·VR Experience Center will visit various institutions until November this year to provide ICT experiences, and related inquiries can be made to the Gyeonggi Content Agency.



Song Gwanghyun, Head of Digital Communication at SK Telecom, said, "It is very meaningful that the public and private sectors cooperate to provide students who find it difficult to visit Tium directly with opportunities to experience advanced ICT technologies," adding, "We will continue to make efforts to bridge the ICT information gap centered on Tium, a global ICT landmark."
