Broadband infrastructure and Korea’s digital development
Kwang-Suk Lee examines the development of broadband infrastructure in Korea through the history of the Korean Information Infrastructure project, launched in 1995 to build a nationwide high-speed backbone network. The account also considers the project’s later evolution, including the redesign of public infrastructure. By placing these stages in their historical context, the book frames Korea’s broadband expansion as a subject shaped by infrastructure planning and its changing public role. Its focus is the development of a national network and the conditions surrounding that process.

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.
