You're getting ripped off if you're paying 30,000/month. I think I pay about 5,000 a month with ABN. I get OCN, Super Action and maybe two other channels with English. I got pissed last month because they removed the Discovery Channel and replaced it with some garbage woman's channel similar to Lifetime. Since Discovery went off the air, I hardly ever bother to turn on my tv

I use ABN (they are based out of Jeongja Station)

I have 70 odd channels (onstyle, storyon, ocn ,cgv, xtm, superaction,oliv etc)

and coupled with high speed internet I pay 26 000 a month total....(I signed up for a 2 year contract because its cheaper and the cancellation fee is only 60 bucks)

Its by far the cheapest internet I have had in Korea...I used to be with Hanaro and paid 30 000 (just for the internet)

good luck...

(they do need to see a copy of your ARC...I had an old photocopy at the time and that was more than sufficient for them...)

my co workers told me about it and helped to arrange it for me

About 15~20 English channels out of 100s
