"OTT Burdened You?" KT Launches Affordable YouTube and TVING Packages

KT has launched a new subscription product to ease the burden of online video services (OTT) such as YouTube and TVING.

On the 2nd, KT announced the release of a new subscription pack called 'YouTube Premium + Starbucks' with a monthly fee of 17,400 KRW.

This product offers 'YouTube Premium,' which allows uninterrupted YouTube viewing without ads, and provides one Starbucks Americano gift every month as a Giftishow.

To celebrate the product launch, a promotion is being held for customers who subscribe by July 31, offering an additional 2,500 KRW discount each month until the end of the year. With the promotional discount, the monthly fee is 14,900 KRW.

Customers using 5G or LTE mobile services can apply through the official online channel KT.com and the MyKT application.

Additionally, KT is introducing the 5G plan OTT benefit 'TVING Ad-Supported Standard Free Promotion.'

Until the 30th of next month, customers who newly subscribe or change their plan to 5G Simple (61,000 to 69,000 KRW per month), Basic (80,000 KRW per month), or Special (100,000 KRW per month) will receive the 'TVING Ad-Supported Standard (5,500 KRW per month)' free of charge until the end of the year.

KT stated, "Customers who subscribed to the eligible plans before May and are currently using them can also receive the benefits by applying for the promotion."

The TVING Ad-Supported Standard product is an ad-supported service that allows live streaming of KBO professional baseball and viewing of popular content, providing 1080P (Full HD) quality. Applications can be made through the KT customer center and stores.
