Color Ring, also known as Caller Ring Back Tone (CRBT), is a service that allows callers to hear a selected piece of music or a message instead of the traditional ringing tone. Here, I will detail the steps for setting up Color Ring for each major Korean telecom provider: SKT, KT, and LG U+.

Access the Service:
SKT users can access Color Ring services through the T world website, the T world mobile app, or by dialing a specific number from their phones (usually *2580). Each method will lead you to the Color Ring settings.
Choose a Ring Back Tone:
Once logged in, you can browse through a library of songs, sound clips, or messages. SKT often categorizes these by new releases, popular tracks, or by genre. You can listen to previews before making a selection.
Set the Tone:
After choosing the desired tone, you can set it as your default Color Ring for all callers, or customize settings for individual contacts. There’s usually an option to set the duration that each Color Ring will play before the call is picked up or directed to voicemail.

Service Registration:
For KT subscribers, Color Ring setup can be initiated via the Olleh website or the KT shop app. You can also dial *5000 directly from your KT mobile phone to enter the setup menu.
Selecting a Tone:
KT offers a similar selection process as SKT. After logging into your account, you can search for tones by keyword or browse through lists of suggestions. Previews are available to help you decide.
Activation and Configuration:
Once a tone is selected, you can activate it and configure various settings such as specific tones for certain callers, time settings (e.g., only during business hours), and more. KT also allows for seasonal or temporary settings if you want to change tones for holidays or special occasions.
LG U+
Getting Started:
LG U+ customers can start the Color Ring setup by visiting the U+ website, using the U+ mobile app, or by calling *7000 from their LG U+ mobile. The service portal provides comprehensive guidance.
Tone Selection:
The process to choose a tone involves browsing through available options categorized by genre, popularity, or artist. LG U+ might also offer exclusive tones or promotions.
Setting and Customization:
After selecting your tone, you can set it up for all incoming calls or personalize it for different callers. LG U+ provides detailed control over how and when the Color Ring is heard by callers, including options to set different tones for different times of the day.
For all services, it’s important to note that fees may apply for subscribing to the Color Ring service and for purchasing specific tones. Prices and availability of tones can vary, so checking the latest information on the respective telecom provider’s website or app is recommended.
