People in South Korea will be able to download entire movies in just one
second by 2020. The country’s Ministry of Education, Science and
Technology (MEST) announced that it would be investing $1.5 billion (1.6
trillion won) to develop 5G technology that will be 1,000 times faster
than the current 4G technology.MEST hopes to have a trial 5G service ready by 2017 and make the
technology commercially available by 2020.
The ministry also aims on
developing new features alongside the network itself, including Ultra-HD
streaming, hologram transmission and upgraded social networking
services. The government estimates that the projected sales for relevant
industries using the 5G infrastructure between 2020 and 2026 will be
$310 billion (331 trillion won). MEST hopes to develop the technology
with the help of service providers such as SK Telecom and Korea Telecom,
as well as the help of tech giants such as Samsung and LG.

into by other countries as well. The EU is set on developing a
next-generation network and hope to meet the increase in traffic by
2020. The speeds claimed by 5G may or may not be speculation, but a new
breed of network is sure to come in a few years
