Having lived in Korea, it really doesn't matter if they make it 1000mbps. Porn is blocked (thanks to the hardworking volunteer force of Korean moms and grandmas keeping children and husbands safe from the filth that would make Confucius nosebleed), freedom of speech has consequences (since your social security number is required), much of the Korean web space is still stuck in early 2000s with an odd hint of George Orwellian theme to it.
I think that I would have the same level of joy if I heard that North Korea decided to make 1000Mbps line for their dedicated network of Juche websites focusing on every aspect of Dear Leader.
I'm guessing they require you to enter your korean social security number in hopes that it would not be possible for a North Korean spy to infiltrate the landscape of online shopping and girly music videos. Ironic, because ActiveX vulnerabilities give North Korean spies far more data and with far more ease.
