🇰🇷STARLINK CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF IN SOUTH KOREA
Starlink is officially on its way to South Korea, bringing high-speed internet to remote villages, oceans, and airplanes — all thanks to a law tweak and some government paperwork.
After a revision to the Radio Waves Act and a deep dive into Starlink Korea’s plans, officials say the service could launch as early as June 2025.
This comes as Korea races to catch up, planning to launch two homegrown satellites by 2030 to compete in a market expected to hit $550 billion globally by 2040.
Meanwhile, sailors stuck watching buffering screens on ships will finally get video calls and Netflix without the dreaded spinning wheel.
