LG U+ offers a variety of mobile services. BankOn is one of the most popular Mobile banking services in South Korea and MusicOn is a music e-store. ==History== In the aftermath of the decision of Korea Telecom, the state-owned phone company to sell its cellular business to private investors in 1994, the South Korean government opened the telecommunications sector up to competition. LG entered the wireless communications market in 1996 by acquiring a CDMA license in June and founded a new carrier named LG Telecom, which built a nationwide digital cellular network. In October 1997 PCS cellular service was launched.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About LG U+ )〕 In March 1998, in an effort to make itself stand out from the bigger, more established players in the market, LG Telecom launched the world's first commercial cdmaOne data service using PCS technology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CDMA History )〕 To better position itself to compete in the bundled services market LG Telecom acquired LG Dacom, a fixed-line communications networks and Internet-related service provider and LG Powercom, one of Korea's largest ISPs.
