Kangsong NET

Kangsong Net (Korean: 강성네트망) is a North Korean wireless telecommunications provider that provides 3G and 4G mobile communication services. Unlike Koryolink which is a joint venture between Orascom Telecom Media and Technology Holding (OTMT) and the Korea Post and Telecommunications Corporation (KPTC), Kangsong NET is a state-owned network. It is owned and operated by the Ministry of Information Industry. It is the main competitor of Koryolink. Its headquarters is in Pyongyang.

Currently, the network is only provided to North Korean citizens. Its 4G network service is currently provided to North Koreans through Kwangmyong Intranet Network.

Kangsong Net was launched in 2015 with 3G network service.

In December 2023, the 4G network service has been launched on a pilot basis using second hand equipment from Huawei. Although it is only available in some parts of the central area of Pyongyang City and other cities, a project is underway with the goal of building more than 80% of communication towers for 4G services by 2025.^[1][2][3][4]
