Using LG G3 bought in Korea from a LG U+ carrier which uses CDMA network

Question

So I bought my LG g3 in Korea form LG U+ which uses CDMA network.

From the user manual, I see that it uses WLAN/WCDMA.

For WCDMA, is uses 1.9GHz for transmitting and 2.1GHz for receiving.

For LTE it uses LTE band 1, 5, 7.

I went to a local verison shop and they tried one of their usim chip to see if it works but it didn't.

I got the confirmation that the phone is carrier unlocked.

Will this phone not work within verizon network at all?

I just need 3g...

It not even about allowing it on the network it simply won't work. Verizon uses band 4 and 13 for LTE. Yes Verizon uses 1900 for 3G but it uses it for BOTH transmitting and receiving, 2100 is AWS and Verizon uses that for LTE not CDMA. And for calls Verizon uses 850 MHz on CDMA which you device doesn't support at all.
