Improved Broadband Environment with Increased Use and More Diversity　◇　 Broadband fees are the lowest in the world.

　◇　 The number of subscribers has broken through the 13 million subscriber mark, and is fast approaching Korea’s second-place world ranking. (as of the end of 2002: US-18.7M, Korea 9.86M, Japan 7.81M)

　◇　 Apace with DSL, we are also seeing a rapid increase in the use of fiber optics.

International comparison of broadband fees (charge per 100Kbps)

Broadband charges are the world’s

lowest
