New Anti-Spam SMS Regulations Introduced
The Korea Communications Commission on Wednesday issued revised anti-spam guidelines limiting the number of SMS texts a mobile phone user can send to a maximum 1,000 a day.

But an exception will be allowed when users obtain advance permission to send a large volume of informative messages.

The KCC plans to ask for a special judicial right to crack down on illegal spam starting this month.
