Since around 10 a.m. on the 20th, KT has been experiencing a wired communication outage. The cause is known to be a cable cut due to railway construction.
A KT official stated, "A cable was cut at the Dongbuk Line urban railway construction site near Majang-dong livestock market," adding, "About 25 pieces of equipment and over 100 personnel have been deployed on-site to carry out restoration work." The exact time for full recovery has not yet been determined.
KT is currently providing alternative communication means (Passcall for order calls and routers for card payments) for customers who cannot place orders or make card payments.
