Genie TV (Korean: 지니 TV; formerly Olleh TV) is an IPTV service provided by South Korea's main telecom operator KT. It broadcasts VOD including TV programs, movies, children's programs, sports, documentaries and animations.

On 4 October 2022, KT rebranded its IPTV service as Genie TV, 11 years after the Olleh TV brand was introduced. The rebranding is part of the telecom's aggressive effort to push forward its content business as growth in the traditional telecom sector slows.[1]
