I just got back from Seoul, and I can confirm that 5G is everywhere in the city! I was able to stream videos and use apps without any lag.

Additionally, even in some rural areas, 5G is starting to be rolled out, but you'll want to check specific coverage maps to be sure. Generally, urban areas have the best connectivity.

I traveled to Jeju Island, and while 5G was mostly available in the city, there were some spots in more remote areas where it dropped to 4G. Overall, still pretty good!
