SK Telink
00700
Works on any Korean carrier
- You do not need to be an SK customer. SKT, KT and LG U+ can all dial it today.

- The call lands on your normal phone bill at the 00700 rate.

- Enter the country code of where the person is. USA is 1.
- Enter their number, dropping the leading 0 of a mobile number.

What a call costs
1,386 KRW per minute
The same rate to every country in the world, VAT included.
This is not a cheap per-minute rate
This is the list price, not a discounted one, and it is charged from the first second. 00700 is cheap on commitment, not per minute. It wins when you call rarely, or when you are not a KT customer.
For comparison
120 minutes to Nepal costs about 166,000 KRW at the 00700 standard rate. The same 120 minutes on a KT 001 글로벌Free subscription (Global Free) costs 7,700 KRW in total.
Country codes
Every country is the same 1,386 KRW per minute.
The full list on the 00700 site covers around 200 countries and territories, all at this one rate.
