Korea Cable Telecom Launches 'Remote Work' Smart Work Service

Mobile and PC Integrated Business Phone Service
Providing Voice and Video Collaboration Services

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] Taekwang Group's media (telecommunications) affiliate Korea Cable Telecom (KCT) launched the remote work support solution service 'Smart Work' on the 23rd.

The Smart Work service, developed through a partnership with Nuriboy, the No.1 domestic internet phone provider, connects office phones to PCs, smartphones, and tablets, allowing users to work outside the office with the same environment as in the office. It is expected to be of great help to companies facing difficulties due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and the spread of telecommuting culture.

The biggest feature of the Smart Work service is that client companies do not need to build separate equipment. Companies that find large-scale equipment installation burdensome can simply purchase the required number of internet phones and subscribe to the additional service to use it. Besides telecommuting, all work can be handled with the company phone number without exposing personal mobile phone numbers even outside the company.

KCT plans to support video conferencing, project management, and whiteboard meetings within this year.

Hong Dong-hwa, head of KCT's Marketing Planning Team, stated, “Not only with the launch of the Smart Work service but also by continuously providing solutions that improve convenience and work efficiency without large investments to customers, we will lead a new paradigm in the corporate communications market where KCT and customers can grow together.”
