More people switch their phone company in Korea after government removes the subsidy ban

Until this month in South Korea, there was a limit to the subsidy that phone companies can give to their customer, as several years ago they gave too huge subsidies that created a distortion in the phone market.

However, Koreans seem sensitive to this news and many people tried to take advantage and get a new phone. According to the article noted below, people who switched carriers multiplied by 3 times more. In my opinion, you should be very careful because the plans that give you a free phone often force you to sign up for more expensive plans, and sometimes it’s worth paying for the phone and having a lower plan. If it is too good to be true, it probably is because it is not true, or they are hiding something. However, I will take a look to confirm if it is anything interesting for me.
