[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] LG Uplus announced on the 27th that it has prepared special network communication measures ahead of the traffic increase expected due to the New Year 2022.


LG Uplus predicted that many customers would stay indoors this year-end and New Year period as outdoor events such as watching the year-end sunset and New Year's sunrise will not be held due to social distancing.


Accordingly, it is expected that viewing of U+tv Video On Demand (VOD) and Over-The-Top (OTT) video services will increase. To respond to the traffic increase, LG Uplus has completed equipment expansion and quality optimization work at major facilities nationwide.



LG Uplus stated, "We operate a network control center 24 hours a day at the Magok building in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, and since the outbreak of COVID-19, we have dispersed control personnel to prepare for infection spread."
