It took about 30 minutes after landing at ICN to begin working, but otherwise perfect coverage! Be aware this is not a voice line, so you can not receive calls or SMS messages

I used the 3day eSIM, very easy to activate and use. If you are in Korea it works from the moment you scan the QR code for 3×24 hours, ending on the same hour you made the scan on the 3rd day.
Fr*** M*** Italy
I used the 1 day eSIM, very easy to activate and worked as promised!
Fr*** M*** Italy
Worked perfectly! I activated the QR code before departing to Korea, and the validity triggered only from the moment the eSIM connected to the SK provider once I landed in Seoul (5PM Seoul time, 22nd August). The validity then counts from that moment on for 10x 24 hours, so the SIM only disconnected on the same hour 10 days later (5PM Seoul time, 1st September). Worked perfectly during all my stay.

Easy to activate, works as promised!
