South Korea\'s government and telecom and platform companies will strengthen service stability ahead of the Chuseok holiday with measures including free video calls and expanded network capacity. The steps also ease service restrictions linked to overdue telecom bills to reduce burdens on vulnerable users. Telecom operators will improve connectivity on key rail routes and add base stations at major hubs. Platforms will provide holiday information, while authorities step up cyber threat monitoring.

South Korea’s three mobile carriers are activating special communications measures ahead of the Chuseok holiday, when traffic is expected to surge. They are checking base station quality at major transport hubs and tourist sites in advance and will use AI-based control and 24-hour monitoring to respond to possible outages. SK Telecom, KT and LG Uplus also plan capacity upgrades, stronger security monitoring and early payments to partner companies.
