Yes, South Korea plans to have 5G data connections in place with speeds 1,000 times faster than existing 4G speeds by 2020. An 800MB movie would take a mere second to download. Dvice says “if we extrapolate that speed claim, entire Blu-rays would only take 5.12 seconds (4GB) to 15.36 seconds (12GB) to download.
