KT said on the 16th that it signed a strategic memorandum of understanding (MOU) with KBRO, Taiwan's largest cable TV operator, to jointly develop AI-based digital media and smart home services at the Victoria Hotel Taipei in Taiwan.

Under the agreement, KT will supply differentiated media services and device technologies to the Taiwan market, including AI-based smart home services, conversational voice recognition technology, AI-optimized UI/UX screens, and intelligent content recommendations. The two companies also plan to jointly develop technologies and service models needed for the transition to smart homes, based on KT's AI agent and media service expertise.

In particular, KT will introduce an "all-in-one soundbar set-top box" equipped with Harman Kardon speakers and Dolby Atmos to the Taiwan market and support global OTT services such as Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube. KT will also distribute original content through MyVideo, Taiwan's content platform, and pursue locally tailored content planning and joint marketing.
