Each plan differs only in data and duration. Pick the row that matches the trip — a long weekend in Hongdae, a full week across Seoul-Busan-Jeju, or a creator-heavy two weeks. Compare side-by-side below.
A light Seoul stopover plan for maps, messengers, and café research.
The editorial default for a full week across Seoul, Busan, and Jeju.
More room for creator uploads, long train days, and navigation-heavy trips.

Korea Classic — 10GB across 7 days. It's the editorial default for a week with maps, Kakao, and a few KTX rides between Seoul and Busan. Pick Grand Tour if you upload reels, livestream, or hotspot to a laptop.
The plan stops carrying data. You will not be billed roaming charges — Datatua plans are prepaid, capped, and never overage-bill. Your home SIM still handles calls and SMS as before.
Top-ups land in v2. For v1 the cleanest path is to buy a second plan from your phone — Korea Weekender as an emergency 3GB extension takes about 30 seconds.
Jeju and Busan: yes, on KT and SKT 5G. KTX corridor (Seoul-Daejeon-Busan): yes, tested. The DMZ tour zones have signal but are not guaranteed inside restricted areas; assume coverage drops at the JSA itself.
