The city of Seoul is piloting a public Wi-Fi service ‘Cachion’ that is four times faster than before. Local governments go directly to public communication services, and the Ministry of Science and Technology, the main science and technology department, strongly opposes it, saying it is illegal, so friction seems inevitable. This is Koo Soo-bon. Near Wangsimni Station, where lines 2 and 5 of the Seoul subway are located. A Wi-Fi repeater with the logo of the city of Seoul stands out at the traffic lights in this area with a large floating population. This is a public Wi-Fi ‘Kachion’ base station that the Seoul Metropolitan Government tests in 5 autonomous districts, including Seongdong-gu. You can use high speed Wi-Fi for free by activating the Wi-Fi function of your phone and selecting ‘SEOUL’ in all areas of public housing such as main roads, parks and traditional markets. Just set it up once for the first time and it will automatically connect wherever Catchon is installed. The city of Seoul hopes to be able to reduce communication costs and secure basic communication rights while laying the foundation for a smart city to implement big data and IoT. The city of Seoul plans to install its own high-speed communications network throughout Seoul by 2022. For the first time in history, local governments are directly launching public communication services, and the position of the Ministry of Science, ICT and ICT, which is the main ministry related to communication, is strong. Seoul’s Cation service clearly violates current commercial telecommunications law, which prevented local governments from conducting key telecommunications business, and said they would issue an order to suspend use immediately and review criminal proceedings. The Seoul Metropolitan Government said that although there are disagreements in the interpretation of the law, the Ministry of Science and ICT also agrees with the purpose of the project.
