IT Development in Korea: A Broadband Nirvana?

By Kwang-Suk Lee

This book investigates the contextual factors that led to Korean society becoming 'broadband heaven' - the most wired nation in the world - by scrutinizing the historical contexts surrounding the Korean Information Infrastructure (KII) project (1995-2005), which aimed to establish a nationwide high-speed backbone network, as well as its later evolution, which involved redesigning the public infrastructure.
