Jan,
I don't believe there is specific net neutrality legislation in Korea,
but I may be wrong. We also get buffering with SBS and Netflix but not
too many times and then not for too long. We get more buffering with
Youtube

I found my SBS OnDemand buffering yesterday afternoon. I didn't try Netflix. It may have buffered, too. Not sure if it was because of network congestion or the SBS server. I also had a non-connect alert for an email grab from Internode about the same time, so I suspect the network was the issue.
