The difference between the US and Korea is VAST though.
Korea is just over 100,000 square kilometers, slightly bigger than Indiana, slightly smaller than Virginia.
The US is 9.834 million square kilometers. Installing infrastructure here is an order of magnitude more difficult.

Yes that’s the talking point Americans like to use as to why their infrastructure is shit. Ok so why does it work in Europe, as a continent? Why does it work in China? Why does it work in Canada? I can be in the Arctic circle not having seen another vehicle for hours on the highway and have full reception. This is in the mountains in the Arctic in a country larger than the US in an area more remote than anywhere that exists in the US.
The reason it doesn’t work in the US is because corporate greed and a population that is ignorant to what it should be. Where’s the outcry over the billions of dollars that the ISPs lined their pockets with for the FTTH rollout and never even remotely got close to delivering, gave up, and walked away…

Canada has dead zones, my man. I’m stabbing a guess, but im sure China does as well.
Really, the argument I’m seeing from you just reeks of you being incredibly naive.
Here’s all the 5g coverage info of Canada that proves your full of crap, BTW.
