From the many messages I received last week about the iPhone and Korea, I wanted to let you guys know what is possibly the most accurate way of telling when the iPhone will come to Korea.
Those of you who read my post last week will know that I do not have much trust in the accuracy of the Korean media when it comes to the iPhone. However, the Apple website is, generally, an accurate method of watching.
I got my iPhone in the UK, and 3 months before it launched the UK flag appeared on the “coming soon” part of the website.
So, we will get to know when the iPhone is about 3 months away from Korea when Korea appears on the “Coming soon” list.
My best guess for now is that we will see the iPhone in Korea between now and January. Apple have a big conference in January and I would expect to see an updated version of the iPhone around that time.

Hello, I\’m SungWook in Korea. I often watch your blog to get some info. Here\’s a hot news.Do you know that Korea Telecom(KTF as you know) will lauch iPhone3G? According to Korea Press, it will be appeared on around July. Thank God!!
