What to do ⇒ After completing the member registration, check once again if you have received the "Registration Completed" e-mail.
Check if you have not mistakenly entered your dTV login ID and password.
One of the most common reasons for not being able to log in is a "mistake in ID or password".
What to do ⇒ If you easily forget your " ID and password", we recommend that you write it down on your phone when you register as a member.
Also, when you enter them, make sure you check them properly before tapping the enter button. (Unlike logging in from a PC, you cannot use the function to remember your password when logging in via the smartphone application.)
If you enter your ID and password incorrectly several times, you may be locked, so do not be in a hurry when entering them each time. In case you get locked, chuck the solution below!

CHECK if the Internet communication environment is bad.
In many cases, you may not be able to log in due to a bad Wi-Fi connection. In such cases, try reconnecting to Wi-Fi in a place with a good communication environment.
Check if you have paid the fee.
If you have already paid for the service, you will not be able to log in because you have not paid.
