Korea provides an excellent example for a study of the mobile information society, simply because its success as one of the world leaders in information and communication technologies is little short of phenomenal. The country has evolved from utter decimation at the end of the Korean War to being one of the world's most high-tech economies. Korea has the highest level of broadband penetration in the world; more than 70 per cent of households are connected to the Internet via high-speed lines. Korea is also one of the leaders in mobile phone technologies.
