[SK Telecom]

(1) Bank loans

On February 14, 2012, the Company borrowed Won 2.5 trillion in a syndicated loan from a syndicate of Korean banks including Kookmin Bank and Woori Bank in order to finance the purchase of SK Hynix shares. Won 2 trillion of the loan matures in three years and Won 0.5 trillion of the loan matures in one year.

[SK Broadband]

SK Broadband, a material consolidated subsidiary of ours, acquired subscriberships of regional cable and other service providers on several different occasions. Such acquisitions were intended to secure a stable subscriber base for our broadband Internet service and, at the same time, increase the service coverage area. Because such acquisitions were conducted on a relatively small scale and involved purchase of subscriberships, we did not believe such acquisitions rose to the level of purchasing an entire business line from another company or were likely to have a material impact on our business, and therefore we believed that such acquisitions did not require resolutions of our shareholders.

[SK Communications]

(1) Leak of personal information

In July 2011, there was a leak of personal information of subscribers of NATE and Cyworld websites operated by SK Communications. As of December 31, 2012, twenty lawsuits were filed against SK Communications, alleging that the leak was caused by its poor management of subscribers personal information and seeking damages of approximately Won 5.5 billion. With respect to a few of the lawsuits, the relevant district courts have rendered judgments for the relevant plaintiffs claims in part and SK Communications has appealed such judgments to the applicable high courts, where the cases are currently pending. Other cases remain pending at various district courts in Korea.

[SK Telink]

On August 23, 2012, the board of directors of SK Telink resolved to discontinue operations of its satellite Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) services due to the decrease in satellite DMB subscribers and the continued burden of fixed costs.

[Wireless Business]

A. Industry Characteristics

As of December 31, 2012, the number of domestic mobile phone subscribers reached 53.62 million and, with more than a 100% penetration rate, the Korean mobile communication market can be considered to have reached its maturation stage. However, the penetration rate is expected to increase further due to increased use of mobile phones by corporate users resulting from the rapid growth of smartphone markets, as well as the increasing popularity of high-tech mobile devices based on wireless data services such as tablet computers.

The Korean mobile communications market continues to improve in the quality of services with the help of advances in network-related technology and the development of highly advanced LTE and 3G smartphones which enable the provision of convergence services for multimedia contents, mobile commerce, telematics, new media and other related services. In addition, through the HSPA+ network commercialized in October 2010 and the LTE network introduced in July 2011, B2B businesses, such as the corporate connected workforce business which can directly contribute to an enhancement in productivity, are expected to grow rapidly.

C. Domestic and Overseas Market Conditions

The Korean mobile communication market includes the entire population of Korea with mobile communication service needs, and almost every Korean is considered a potential user. Sales revenue related to data services is expected to increase due to the increasing popularity of smartphones and wireless Internet. The importance of the business-to-business segment, which creates added value by selling and developing various solutions, is also growing. Seasonal and economic fluctuations have much less impact on the Korean mobile communication market compared to other industries.

D. Business Overview and Competitive Strengths

The Company is seeking to transform itself from a telecommunication service provider into a comprehensive information and communication technology (ICT) service provider. It has continued to expand the scope of its services and achieved strong growth in subscribers amid fierce competition and rate cuts. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded Won 16.3 trillion in operating revenue and Won 1,760 billion in operating income on a consolidated basis and Won 12.33 trillion in revenue and Won 1,680 billion in operating income on a separate basis.

The number of subscribers as of December 31, 2012 was 26.96 million, an increase of approximately 408,000 from the previous year. In particular, the number of smartphone subscribers as of December 31, 2012 was 16.18 million, an increase of 4.92 million from the previous year, including 7.53 million LTE subscribers, solidifying the Companys market leadership. The Company upgraded the quality of data services by providing commercial LTE services, enabling streaming of high-quality videos, high-definition voice services such as high-definition video conference calls and joyn.T, an all-IP next generation integrated communications service. The Company also plans to enhance customer satisfaction by improving network quality.

The Company has proved that it has superior network quality compared to its competitors according to the Korea Communications Commission quality evaluations. The Company has also proved to be the leader in Koreas top three customer satisfaction indices: according to the National Customer Satisfaction Index, Korean Customer Satisfaction Index and Korean Standard Service Quality Index, the Company has continued to hold the leading position for 15 years, 15 years and 13 years, respectively.

SK Telink, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, expanded its operations to the MVNO business based on its technical expertise and know-how obtained in its international telecommunications business and launched its MVNO service, 7Mobile, which is offered at reasonable rates and provides excellent quality. An MVNO leases the networks of a mobile network operator (MNO) and provides wireless telecommunication services under its own brand and fee structure, without owning telecommunication networks or frequencies.

Network O&S, a subsidiary of the Company responsible for the operation of the Companys base stations and related transmission and power facilities, offers quality fixed-line and wireless products to customers, including mobile office products to business customers.

PS&Marketing, a subsidiary of the Company involved in wholesale, retail and online sales, offers fixed-line and wireless telecommunication products and services to meet the lifestyle needs of customers.

[Fixed-line Business]

A. Industry Characteristics

Mergers among fixed-line operators and wireless operators have accelerated the convergence within the Korean telecommunications industry, creating a market structure in which groups with both fixed-line and wireless capabilities compete for greater market share to secure a more solid footing in the market. In addition, with the introduction of smartphones, tablet computers and other devices with enhanced mobility and the expansion of LTE service, wireless Internet usage has become a norm. As subscribers to various bundled wireless and fixed-line products are continuing to increase, subscribers to IPTV services are rapidly increasing. The market for our corporate business is also growing with cloud computing, mobile offices and other new information and communications technologies being commercialized. The increased usage of smartphones and tablet computers has greatly increased the demand for wireless data transmissions, thereby further emphasizing the importance of fixed-line networks.

We believe the transition to digital TV services will accelerate when analog open air TV broadcasting terminates at the end of 2012. With the introduction of new services such as smart TVs, we are seeing stronger competition in various convergence products, such as mobile IPTV and N-screen services employing smartphones and tablet computers.

C. Cyclical Nature and Seasonality

High-speed Internet, fixed-line telephone and IPTV services are generally not sensitive to cyclical economic changes. Demand for these services also does not show seasonal fluctuations.

We expect that the accelerated transition to digital TV services as a result of the termination of analog open air TV broadcasting, as well as the entrance of Google Inc. (Google) and Apple Inc. (Apple) into the television market and the introduction of smart TV products, will present opportunities by expanding the market size and increasing consumers interests. We are strengthening our competitiveness in the TV business by improving the performance of our TV set boxes and expanding the number of popular channels, as well as introducing mobile IPTV services using N-screen.

D. Business Overview and Competitive Strengths

SK Broadband, which in 1999 became the first company in the world to commence commercial ADSL services, has strengthened its co-marketing efforts with SK Telecom. The co-marketing efforts and the enhanced competitiveness of the bundled products have resulted in an expanded subscriber base across all of our businesses, including broadband Internet, telephone and IPTV. In particular, we have positioned ourselves to focus on corporate customer services as one of the key strategic areas for mid- to long-term growth, and our efforts to exploit new information and communications technology-based businesses have led to revenue growth and strengthening of our competitiveness in the emerging business-to-business market.

SK Telink, a material consolidated subsidiary of the Company, provides international telecommunications service. SK Telink has been able to establish itself as a market leader as a result of its affordable pricing, proactive marketing and the quality of its services. It launched a mobile phone-based international calling service under the brand name 00700 in 1998, creating a new niche market within the long-distance telephony market that was otherwise dominated by existing service providers. In 2003, SK Telink was designated a common carrier for international calling services, which allowed us to expand our international calling services to fixed-line international calling services. SK Telink plans to strengthen its existing business, including international and long-distance calling services, value-added services for local calling and B2B services, while satisfying customers diverse needs for new services.

[Other Business]

A. Industry Characteristics

As the number of smartphones distributed in Korea exceeds 30 million, the growth in various mobile devices has spurred the rise of the service provider with a strong platform business as the leader in the ICT market. A platform business acts as an intermediary by promoting interactions among various customer groups, thereby generating new values. It is important for a platform business to continually attract subscribers and users and to create an ecosystem with certain lock-in effects. A platform can exist in various forms, including as a technological standard (iOS, Android OS), a subscriber-based service platform (Facebook, Twitter) or a marketplace (Amazon, T Store). Platform businesses are evolving and expanding globally.

A platform business has strong growth potential due to its connectivity with related services and ease of global expansion. Apple became a world-leading smartphone producer based on its innovative design and the competitive strength of its App Store platform. Google has created a new ecosystem of long-tail advertising by attracting millions of third parties to its advertising platform, as well as showing strong growth in mobile markets with its competitive platform based on Android OS. .

B. Growth Potential

The Company expects that the scope and value generated by the platform business, including application and content marketplaces and N-screen services, will increase, as smartphones and tablet computers become more popular and the bandwidth and speed of network infrastructure improve.

As the wireless network evolves to LTE, business opportunities for the platform business are growing, which include multimedia streaming, N-screen service based on cloud technology and high-definition location-based services. Since the platform business realizes profit by connecting with advertisements or commerce sites after building a critical mass of subscribers and traffic, the recent growth in the advertising and commerce markets is expected to present an opportunity for platform businesses.

C. Domestic and Overseas Market Conditions

(1) Competition

Application Marketplace

The growth of application marketplaces, which started with Apples App Store, provides the platform business with new opportunities for revenue generation. The competitive paradigm is shifting from a competition among platform operators toward a competition among ecosystems that include application developers as well as platform operators.

Commerce Markets

The Company expects that on-line commerce markets will continue to grow due to the growth potential of the Internet shopping population and the strengthening of on-line business models by off-line operators. The Korean advertising market is expected to grow from Won 7.4 trillion in 2010 to Won 10.0 trillion in 2015. In particular, mobile advertising is expected to grow rapidly to Won 0.8 trillion in 2015, primarily due to the popularity of smartphones and convergence with location-based advertising.

Media Contents Market

Due to an increase in the number of devices owned by each user and an increase in network speed, each user can now enjoy music or video files anywhere and anytime by storing them in cloud servers, which is called N-screen service. Users can recommend music to other users through social networking services and this is expected to become a distribution model for digital media contents. Various service providers are competing in this market expecting a strong growth in the on-line and mobile video market.

Although Internet portal service providers provide more or less identical types of services, including search, social networking, email, news and other content services, for each type of service, a small number of service providers with specialized expertise are enjoying relatively large market shares. However, the portal services market has a relatively low entry barrier and there is increased competition from new entrants. In addition, the ease of access to services provided by competitive foreign providers is also adding to a highly competitive market environment.

(2) Market Share

CyWorld service, our social networking website in Korea, had 26 million cumulative subscribers, 14 million net users and a page view of 6 billion as of December 2012. Our Nate-On service had the largest market share of 74.4% in the instant messenger market in Korea with 8 million net users as of December 2012. Our Nate search portal service had a market share of 1.8% as of December 2012. (Source: Korean Click, Company data).

D. Business Overview and Competitive Strengths

SK Planet plans to expand its platform ecosystem focusing on its Open & Collaboration motto in operating its digital content marketplaces such as T Store and Hoppin, commerce marketplaces such as 11 th Street and Smart Wallet and location-based services such as T-Map Navigation, thereby ultimately increasing its enterprise value.

Digital Content Marketplace

T Store, launched in September 2009, reached 18.8 million subscribers and cumulative downloads of 1 billion as of December 2012, solidifying its leadership position in the Korean application market and plans to widen its services to tablets and navigation devices. The Company intends to further develop T Store into a global service platform by evolving it into a personalized gateway through expansion of the scope of serviceable devices, reinforcement of digital content offerings and enhancement of search services, among other things.

The Companys Hoppin service, which provides N-screen media service enabling subscribers to enjoy video on demand through a number of N-screen compatible devices, including smartphones, tablets and PCs. Through continual service improvements and stable service provision, Hoppin has become the leading mobile video on demand service with over 300 million subscribers as of October 2012. The Company plans to market this service globally based on its experience in the Korean IT infrastructure environment.

Commerce (Open Market)

11th Street, an online marketplace, has continued its growth through effective marketing and customer satisfaction. Despite its later entry into the online commerce market (launched in 2008) which was already divided between Auction and G-Market, it is leading the domestic e-commerce market and is also firmly establishing its position as the leader in the mobile commerce market. Future growth plans include overseas joint ventures based on 11th Streets business expertise.

Location-based Service

T-Map Navigation provides map, local information, real-time traffic information and navigation services. With cumulative subscribers of 16.23 million as of December 31, 2012, T-Map Navigation is one of the leading location-based service platforms in Korea. The Company plans to further develop the T-Map Navigation platform by initiating open application programming interface-based services, providing services to more diverse types of devices and providing local area-based services.

Media Platform

The Companys media platform business started with its Hoppin service, which provides N-screen media service enabling subscribers to enjoy contents through a number of devices. Hoppin has expanded its services to more types of smartphones and tablets and has 3.38 million subscribers as of December 31, 2012. The Company plans to develop Hoppin service into a media platform acting as an intermediary of various N-screen services. It also plans to provide media platform services in overseas markets in stages.

Mobile Social Networking Service

In the first quarter 2012, SK Planet, a subsidiary of the Company, acquired Madsmart Inc., which provides tic-toc service, in order to expand its business to mobile communication and social networking services. Mobile social networking, still in its early stage of development, presents ample opportunities for new businesses and is expected to grow rapidly in the future. In October 2012, the Company completed the development of a global mobile social networking service and released it globally, including to the U.S. and South East Asia. SK Planet plans to create synergies from the acquisition of Madsmart Inc. by combining its know-how in platform services and the strengths of tic-toc in social networking services.

Music Business

The Companys online music site, MelOn, has continued to increase its sales and, for the past four years, has been recognized as having the largest market share and the highest brand recognition in the digital music sales market in Korea. As of December 31, 2012, the Company supports all major smartphone and tablet devices introduced in Korea, including the iPhone and the iPad, and is strengthening its support for its mobile customers who use MelOn services in a multi-device environment. From January 2013, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has required online music streaming service providers to pay increased licensing fees to copyright holders and in response, MelOn released various new services and increased the fees for its services. With a wider range of options for subscribers and a more reasonable profit distribution structure for copyright holders, the Company expects to establish a coexistent structure for copyright holders and music distribution platforms. The Company plans to strengthen its leadership in the mobile market and increase the number of its subscribers by responding to changes in the smart device and 4G LTE network environment, providing reliable service operations and continually improving service, offering relevant and special music related contents to its customers and engaging in diverse and differentiated marketing promotion activities.

Satellite DMB

The Company launched its Hanbyul satellite in 2004 and received government approval in December 30, 2004 to provide satellite DMB services. Broadcasting through satellite DMB commenced in May 2005 and satellite DMB services expanded nationwide thereafter. On August 23, 2012, the board of directors resolved to discontinue operation of its satellite DMB services due to the rapid decrease in satellite DMB subscribers and the continued burden of fixed costs.

Overview

The Company had many meaningful achievements in 2012. The Company expanded the coverage area of its LTE services to nationwide and became the first telecommunications service operator glo bally to commercialize LTE multi-carrier technology. With these achievements, the Company increased its quality-oriented competitiveness and continued to maintain its leadership position in the LTE market. The Company attracted 7.53 million LTE subscribers by the end of 2012 amid intense competition.

In addition, through the spin-off of SK Planet and the acquisition of SK Hynix, the Company has established its future direction through its transformation towards a comprehensive ICT company. The Company has set forth its future growth strategy Vision 2020 and is actively responding to the current trend towards a more data-focused industry and to the changes in its competitive environment.

The Companys operating revenue, on a consolidated basis, was Won 16,300.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2012, a 2.3% increase from 2011 due to an increase in the number of LTE subscribers. The Companys operating income, on a consolidated basis, was Won 1,760.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2012, which primarily resulted from an increase in marketing expenses in connection with a rapid increase in LTE subscribers and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses, which was attributable mainly to an increase in the Companys investments in wireless networks in response to an increase in data transmission. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Companys EBITDA (as further explained below) and profit for the year were Won 4,338.8 billion and Won 1,115.7 billion, respectively.

In 2012, the Companys capital expenditures, on a separate basis, were Won 2,858.4 billion, which exceeded the capital expenditure budget set at the beginning of the year. The Company expects that the capital expenditure amount in the mid- to long-term future will decrease and stabilize due to better technology and its efforts to invest more efficiently.

Cash dividends for 2012 were Won 9,400 per common share, which include interim dividends of Won 1,000 per common share paid during the year.

B. Operating Profit

The Companys operating income for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased 23.3% from the previous year, primarily due to a reduction of the monthly fee for every subscriber effective from September 2011 and an increase in marketing expenses due to increased competition to acquire new LTE subscribers.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 6.9% from the previous year mainly due to an increase in the Companys investment in wireless networks, including its LTE multi-carrier technology, and the amortization of its frequency license for the 1.8 GHz spectrum which it started using in 2012. The cost of products that have been resold increased 35.2% from the previous year primarily due to an increase in LTE smartphone sales by PS&Marketing.

Analysis of SK Telecoms Non-Consolidated Operating Information

A. Number of Subscribers

Subscribers (thousands)	26,961	26,553	408		1.5 %
Net Increase	409	848	(439	)	51.7 %
Activations	8,644	9,468	(824	)	8.7 %
Deactivations	8,235	8,619	(384	)	4.5 %
Monthly Churn Rate (%)	2.6 %	2.7 %	0.1	%p
Average Subscribers (thousands)	26,680	26,199	481		1.8 %
Smartphone Subscribers	15,979	11,085	4,894		44.1 %
LTE Subscribers	7,530	634	6,896		1,087.1 %

The number of LTE subscribers as of December 31, 2012 was 7.53 million. The growth in LTE subscribers is expected to be the basis for long-term future growth. The proportion of LTE subscribers at the end of 2012 was 28% of all SK Telecom subscribers and the Company expects this proportion will reach approximately 50% by the end of 2013. The number of smartphone subscribers as of December 31, 2012 was 16 million and constituted 59.3% of all SK Telecom subscribers.

B. Average Monthly Revenue per Subscriber

Billing Average Monthly Revenue Per Subscriber (Won)	33,016	33,178	(161	)	0.5 %

The billing average monthly revenue per subscriber (ARPU) is derived by dividing the sum of total SK Telecom and SK Planet revenues from voice service and data service (but excluding revenue from MVNO subscribers) for the period by the monthly average number of subscribers that are not MVNO subscribers for the period, then dividing that number by the number of months in the period. Although the definition of ARPU may vary by company, it is a measure that is widely used in the telecommunications industry for revenue comparison purposes.

In 2012, the increase in LTE subscribers offset, to a large extent, the effects of the reduction of the monthly fee for every subscriber effective from September 2011.

Guidance for Fiscal Year 2013

The Company announced the following guidance for fiscal year 2013 during its earnings release conference call on February 5, 2013.

Operating revenue (consolidated): Won 17.2 trillion
SK Telecoms capital expenditures (separate): Won 2.1 trillion
Cash dividends: Similar level as cash dividends paid for fiscal year 2012
Liquidity

As of December 31, 2012, the Companys debt-to-equity ratio (as calculated based on the interest-bearing financial debt) was 52.0% compared to 45.8% as of December 31, 2011. The net debt-to-equity ratio (as calculated based on the interest-bearing financial debt minus cash and marketable securities) was 40.8% and 24.5% at the end of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Interest coverage ratio (EBITDA / interest expense) was 11.3 and 13.4 at the end of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company continues to have sufficient liquidity.

Financing

As of December 31, 2012, the Companys aggregate debt amounted to Won 6,684 billion, comprising long-term and short-term borrowings, debentures and current portion of long-term borrowings, which increased by 14.7% from Won 5,827 billion as of December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to the borrowing of Won 2.5 trillion in a syndicated loan from a syndicate of Korean banks, including Kookmin Bank and Woori Bank, pursuant to a resolution of SK Telecoms board of directors on November 10, 2011, to fund part of the payment of the Companys acquisition of shares of SK Hynix on February 14, 2012.

While the Company does not expect this litigation to have an immediate impact on its business or results of operation because the judgment amount is Won 570 million and the final outcome of the litigation has not been decided, the Company may be required to pay increased on-going license fees in the future if the final judgment is rendered against it.

Actual impact on the Companys business and financial condition from the litigation may be different from the Companys expectation stated above.

B. Other Matters

(1) Pledged Assets and Covenants

In 2012, SK Broadband has entered into a loan agreement with two banks, including Hana Bank, to borrow up to Won 100 billion.

In connection with the discontinuation of SK Telinks satellite DMB service, SK Telink expects that there is a high probability that it will need to pay damages to DMB subscribers who were using its DMB service at the time the DMB service was discontinued. However, SK Telink did not recognize any contingent liability for such damages as the amount of damages cannot be reasonably estimated.

In 2011, PS&Marketing, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, entered into a loan agreement to borrow up to Won 40 billion of working capital from Shinhan Bank. In connection with the loan agreement, it pledged Won 52 billion of its inventories to Shinhan Bank as collateral.

Independent Auditors Report

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders

SK Telecom Co., Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of three domestic subsidiaries and a 21.1% owned domestic associate. The financial statements of the three domestic subsidiaries reflect total assets constituting 18.6% and total revenues constituting 15.1% in 2012 of the related consolidated totals. The Groups investment in the domestic associate at December 31, 2012 was ￦ 3,374,726 million and the Groups equity in profits of the domestic associate was ￦ 6,865 million. The financial statements of the three domestic subsidiaries and the 21.1% owned domestic associate were audited by other auditors whose reports were furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the three domestic subsidiaries and the 21.1% owned domestic associate, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. Additionally, the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011, presented for comparative purposes, were audited by other auditors and their report thereon, dated March 13, 2012, expressed an unqualified opinion.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audit and results of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2012 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards.

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the following:

As discussed in note 35, during 2012 the Group decided to cease the broadcasting business due to the accumulating losses resulting from the continuing decline in satellite digital multimedia broadcasting subscribers. The Group has presented the loss from the cessation of the broadcasting business as loss from discontinued operation for the year ended December 31, 2012, classified the assets and liabilities as held for sale, and accordingly restated the comparative information of the statements of income, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011.

As discussed in note 2, the Group adopted amendments to K-IFRS No.1001, Presentation of Financial Statements from the annual period ended December 31, 2012. The amendment requires operating income, which is calculated as operating revenue less operating expense, to be separately presented on the consolidated statement of income. Operating expense represents expense incurred from the Groups main operating activities and includes cost of products that have been resold, and selling, general and administrative expenses. The Group applied this change in accounting policies retrospectively, and accordingly restated the comparative information of the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to audit such consolidated financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries. Accordingly, this report is for use by those knowledgeable about Korean auditing standards and their application in practice.

KPMG Samjong Accounting Corp.

This report is effective as of February 22, 2013, the audit report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the audit report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the audit report should understand that the above audit report has not been updated to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes: revenue, classification of investment property, and lease classification.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year are included in the following notes: allowance for doubtful accounts, estimated useful lives of property and equipments, and intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, measurement of defined benefit obligation, utilization of tax losses, and commitments and contingencies.

(5) Changes in accounting policies

1) Changes in accounting policies

(i) Financial Instruments: Disclosures

The Group has applied the amendments to K-IFRS No.1107, Financial Instruments: Disclosures since January 1, 2012. The amendments require disclosing the nature of transferred assets, their carrying amount, and the description of risks and rewards for each class of transferred financial assets that are not derecognized in their entirety. If the Group derecognizes transferred financial assets but still retains their specific risks and rewards, the amendments require additional disclosures of their risks.

(ii) Presentation of financial statements

The Group adopted the amendments pursuant to the amended K-IFRS No. 1001, Presentation of Financial Statements from the annual period ended December 31, 2012. The Groups operating income is calculated as operating revenue less operating expense. Operating expense represents expense incurred from the Groups main operating activities and includes cost of products that have been resold, and selling, general and administrative expenses.

(6) Common control transactions

SK Holdings Co, Ltd. (the Ultimate Controlling Entity) is the Ultimate Controlling Entity of the Parent Company because it has de facto control of the Parent Company. Accordingly, gains and losses from business acquisitions and dispositions involving entities that are under the control of the Ultimate Controlling Entity are accounted for as common control transactions within equity.

(7) Authorization for issuance of the consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on February 7, 2013, which will be submitted for approval to the shareholders meeting to be held on March 22, 2013.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies applied by the Group in preparation of its consolidated financial statements are included below. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements except for those as described in note 2-(5).

(1) Operating segments

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Groups other components. The Groups operating segments have been determined to be each business unit, for which the Group generates separately identifiable financial information that is regularly reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. The Group has three reportable segments which consist of cellular services, fixed-line telecommunication services and others, as described in note 4. Segment results that are reported to the chief operating decision maker include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

(2) Basis of consolidation

(i) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the other entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

If a member of the Group uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the consolidated financial statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to its financial statements in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

(ii) Intra-group transactions

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

(iii) Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are accounted for separately from the parents ownership interests in a subsidiary. Each component of net profit or loss and other comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and non-controlling interest holders, even when the allocation reduces the non-controlling interest balance below zero.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(2) Basis of consolidation, Continued

(iv) Changes in the Parent Companys ownership interest in a subsidiary

Changes in the Parent Companys ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Adjustments to non-controlling interests are based on a proportionate amount of the net assets of the subsidiary. No adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. The difference between the consideration and the adjustments made to non-controlling interest is recognized directly in equity attributable to the owners of the Parent Company.

(3) Business combination

(i) Business combination

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control.

Each identifiable asset and liability is measured at its acquisition-date fair value except for below:

Leases and insurance contracts are required to be classified on the basis of the contractual terms and other factors

Only those contingent liabilities that are a present obligation and can be measured reliably are recognized

Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized and measured in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1012, Income Taxes

Employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with K-IFRS No.1019, Employee Benefits

Indemnification assets are recognized and measured on the same basis as the indemnified liability or asset

Reacquired rights are measured on the basis of the remaining contractual terms of the related contract

Liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment transactions are measured in accordance with the method in K-IFRS No.1102, Share-based Payment

Assets held for sale are measured at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1105, Non-current Assets Held for Sale

As of the acquisition date, non-controlling interests in the acquiree are measured as the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the acquirees identifiable net assets.

The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(3) Business combination, Continued

Acquisition-related costs are costs the acquirer incurs to effect a business combination. Those costs include finders fees; advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional or consulting fees; general administrative costs, including the costs of maintaining an internal acquisitions department; and costs of registering and issuing debt and equity securities. Acquisition-related costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. The costs to issue debt or equity securities are recognized in accordance with K-IFRS No.1032, Financial Instruments: Presentation and K-IFRS No.1039, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

(ii) Goodwill

The Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:

the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus

the recognized amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus

if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the pre-existing equity interest in the acquiree; less

the net recognized amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

When the excess is negative, bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

As part of its transition to K-IFRS, the Group elected to restate only those business combinations which occurred on or after January 1, 2010 in accordance with K-IFRS. In respect of acquisitions prior to January 1, 2010, goodwill is included on the basis of its deemed cost, which represents the amount recorded under previous GAAP, K-GAAP.

(iii) Acquisitions from entities under common control

Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under the control of the shareholder that controls the Group are accounted for as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established; for this purpose comparatives are revised.

The assets and liabilities acquired are recognized at the carrying amounts recognized previously in the Group controlling shareholders consolidated financial statements. The components of equity of the acquired entities are added to the same components within Group equity except that any share capital of the acquired entities is recognized as part of share premium.

(4) Associates

An associate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the entitys financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Group holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting power of another entity.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(4) Associates, Continued

The investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the Groups share of the profit or loss and changes in equity of the associate after the date of acquisition. Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Intra-group losses recognized as expense if intra-group losses indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements.

If an associate uses accounting policies different from those of the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to its financial statements in applying the equity method.

When the Groups share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term investments, is reduced to nil and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has to make payments on behalf of the investee for further losses.

(5) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments.

(6) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the acquisition cost using the average method. During the period, a perpetual inventory system is used to value inventories, which is adjusted to the physical inventory counts performed at the period end. When the net realizable value of inventories is less than the acquisition cost, the carrying amount is reduced to the net realizable value and any difference is charged to current operations as operating expenses. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(7) Non-derivative financial assets

The Group recognizes and measures non-derivative financial assets by the following four categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets. The Group recognizes financial assets in the consolidated statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Upon initial recognition, non-derivative financial assets are measured at their fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the assets acquisition or issuance.

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A financial asset is classified as financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss if it is held for trading or is designated as such upon initial recognition. Upon initial recognition, transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss when incurred. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.

(ii) Held-to-maturity investments

A non-derivative financial asset with a fixed or determinable payment and fixed maturity, for which the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

(iii) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method except for loans and receivables of which the effect of discounting is immaterial.

(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments or loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value, which changes in fair value, net of any tax effect, recorded in other comprehensive income in equity. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost.

(v) De-recognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognized as a separate asset or liability. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the transferred financial assets, the Group continues to recognize the transferred financial assets and recognizes financial liabilities for the consideration received.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(7) Non-derivative financial assets, Continued

(vi) Offsetting between financial assets and financial liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the consolidated statement of financial position only when the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, and there is the intention to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(8) Derivative financial instruments, including hedge accounting

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

(i) Hedge accounting

The Group holds forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other derivative contracts to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Group designated derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of assets, liabilities or firm commitments (a fair value hedge) and foreign currency risk of highly probable forecasted transactions or firm commitments (a cash flow hedge).

On initial designation of the hedge, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and hedged item(s), including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship.

Fair value hedge

Changes in the fair value of a derivative hedging instrument designated as a fair value hedge are recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value for a derivative hedging instrument and the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in profit or loss in the same line item of the consolidated statement of income. The Group discontinues fair value hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or if the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. Any adjustment arising from gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is amortized to profit or loss from the date the hedge accounting is discontinued.

Cash flow hedge

When a derivative is designated to hedge the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction that could affect profit or loss, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax, and presented in the hedging reserve in equity. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or the designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss in the periods during which the forecasted transaction occurs. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in other comprehensive income is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(8) Derivative financial instruments, including hedge accounting, Continued

(ii) Separable embedded derivatives

Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately only if the following criteria have been met:

(a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to those of the host contract;

(b) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and

Changes in the fair value of separable embedded derivatives are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

(iii) Other derivative financial instruments

Changes in the fair value of other derivative financial instrument not designated as a hedging instrument are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

(9) Impairment of financial assets

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably. However, losses expected as a result of future events, regardless of likelihood, are not recognized.

Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes following loss events:

significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;

a breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrowers financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;

it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;

the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or

observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the group

In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.

If financial assets have objective evidence that they are impaired, impairment losses should be measured and recognized.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(9) Impairment of financial assets, Continued

(i) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows discounted at the assets original effective interest rate. If it is not practicable to obtain the instruments estimated future cash flows, impairment losses would be measured by using prices from any observable current market transactions. The Group can recognize impairment losses directly or establish a provision to cover impairment losses. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an improvement in the debtors credit rating), the previously recognized impairment loss shall be reversed either directly or by adjusting an allowance account.

(ii) Financial assets carried at cost

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has occurred on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured, or on a derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment losses shall not be reversed.

(iii) Available-for-sale financial assets

When a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognized in other comprehensive income and there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, the cumulative loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment even though the financial asset has not been derecognized. Impairment losses recognized in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as available-for-sale shall not be reversed through profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss shall be reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss.

(10) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and after initial recognition, are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of property, plant and equipment includes expenditures arising directly from the construction or acquisition of the asset, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

Subsequent to initial recognition, an item of property, plant and equipment shall be carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(10) Property, plant and equipment, Continued

Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment at cost or, if appropriate, as separate items if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Property, plant and equipment, except for land, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives that appropriately reflect the pattern in which the assets future economic benefits are expected to be consumed. A component that is significant compared to the total cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated over its separate useful life.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognized as other non-operating income (loss).

The estimated useful lives of the Groups property, plant and equipment are as follows:

	Useful lives (years)
Buildings and structures	15 ~ 40
Machinery	3 ~ 15
Other property, plant and equipment (Other PP&E)	4 ~ 10

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

(11) Borrowing costs

The Group capitalizes borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognized in expense as incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that requires a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Financial assets and inventories that are manufactured or otherwise produced over a short period of time are not qualifying assets. Assets that are ready for their intended use or sale when acquired are not qualifying assets.

To the extent that the Group borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the Group determines the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings. To the extent that the Group borrows funds generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the Group shall determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalization rate shall be the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Group that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The amount of borrowing costs that the Group capitalizes during a period shall not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred during that period.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(12) Intangible assets

Intangible assets are measured initially at cost and, subsequently, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

Amortization of intangible assets except for goodwill is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date that they are available for use. The residual value of intangible assets is zero. However, as there are no foreseeable limits to the periods over which club memberships are expected to be available for use, this intangible asset is determined as having indefinite useful lives and not amortized.

The estimated useful lives of the Groups intangible assets are as follows:

	Useful lives (years)
Frequency use rights	6 ~ 13
Land use rights	5
Industrial rights	5 ~ 10
Development costs	5
Facility usage rights	10 ~ 20
Customer relations	4~9
Other	3 ~ 20

Amortization periods and the amortization methods for intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. The useful lives of intangible assets that are not being amortized are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support indefinite useful life assessments for those assets. Changes are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.

Expenditures on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. Other development expenditures are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditures, including expenditures on internally generated goodwill and brands, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(13) Government grants

Government grants are not recognized unless there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the grants conditions and that the grant will be received.

(i) Grants related to assets

Government grants whose primary condition is that the Group purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets are deducted in calculating the carrying amount of the asset. The grant is recognized in profit or loss over the life of a depreciable asset as a reduction to depreciation expense.

(ii) Grants related to expense

Government grants which are intended to compensate the Group for expenses incurred are deducted from the related expenses.

(14) Investment property

Property held for the purpose of earning rentals or benefiting from capital appreciation is classified as investment property. Investment property is initially measured at its cost. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement. Subsequently, investment property is carried at depreciated cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of investment property at cost or, if appropriate, as separate items if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Investment property except for land, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over 15~40 years as estimated useful lives.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

(15) Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Groups non-financial assets, other than assets arising from employee benefits, inventories, deferred tax assets and non-current assets held for sale, are reviewed at the end of the reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assets recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, are tested for impairment annually by comparing their recoverable amount to their carrying amount.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(15) Impairment of non-financial assets, Continued

The Group estimates the recoverable amount of an individual asset, if it is impossible to measure the individual recoverable amount of an asset, then the Group estimates the recoverable amount of cash-generating unit (CGU). A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. The value in use is estimated by applying a pre-tax discount rate that reflect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU for which estimated future cash flows have not been adjusted, to the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss if the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each CGU that is expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the goodwill acquired. Any impairment identified at the CGU level will first reduce the carrying value of goodwill and then be used to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. Except for impairment losses in respect of goodwill which are never reversed, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(16) Leases

The Group classifies and accounts for leases as either a finance or operating lease, depending on the terms. Leases where the Group assumes substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

(i) Finance leases

At the commencement of the lease term, the Group recognizes as finance assets and finance liabilities in its consolidated statements of financial position, the lower amount of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. Any initial direct costs are added to the amount recognized as an asset.

Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent rents are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

The depreciable amount of a leased asset is allocated to each accounting period during the period of expected use on a systematic basis consistent with the depreciation policy the lessee adopts for depreciable assets that are owned. If there is no reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. The Group reviews to determine whether the leased asset may be impaired.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(16) Leases, Continued

(ii) Operating leases

Leases where the lessor retains a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

(iii) Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease

Determining whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease shall be based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets (the asset) and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

At inception or reassessment of the arrangement, the Group separates payments and other consideration required by such an arrangement into those for the lease and those for other elements on the basis of their relative fair values. If the Group concludes for a financial lease that it is impracticable to separate the payments reliably, the Group recognizes an asset and a liability at an amount equal to the fair value of the underlying asset that was identified as the subject of the lease. Subsequently, the liability shall be reduced as payments are made and an imputed finance charge on the liability recognized using the purchasers incremental borrowing rate of interest.

(17) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. In order to be classified as held for sale, the asset (or disposal group) must be available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale must be highly probable. The assets or disposal group that are classified as non-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. The Group recognizes an impairment loss for any initial or subsequent write-down of an asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell, and a gain for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell, up to the cumulative impairment loss previously recognized in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1036, Impairment of Assets.

A non-current asset that is classified as held for sale or part of a disposal group classified as held for sale is not depreciated (or amortized).

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(18) Non-derivative financial liabilities

The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of financial liabilities. The Group recognizes financial liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial liability.

(i) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading or designated as such upon initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss. Upon initial recognition, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

(ii) Other financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities other than financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are classified as other financial liabilities. At the date of initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at fair value minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

The Group derecognizes a financial liability from the consolidated statement of financial position when it is extinguished (i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires).

(19) Employee benefits

(i) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

(ii) Other long-term employee benefits

Other long-term employee benefits include employee benefits that are settled beyond 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service, and are calculated at the present value of the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, less the fair value of any related assets. The present value is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using the interest rate of corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Groups obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. Any actuarial gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

(iii) Retirement benefits: defined contribution plans

When an employee has rendered service to the Group during a period, the Group recognizes the contribution payable to a defined contribution plan in exchange for that service as a liability (accrued expense), after deducting any contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the end of the reporting period, the Group recognizes that excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

(iv) Retirement benefits: defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Groups net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of plan assets is deducted. The calculation is performed annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Groups obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. The Group recognizes all actuarial gains and losses arising from actuarial assumption changes and experiential adjustments in other comprehensive income when incurred.

When the fair value of plan assets exceeds the present value of the defined benefit obligation, the Group recognizes an asset, to the extent of the total of cumulative unrecognized past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reduction in the future contributions to the plan.

Past service costs which are the change in the present value of the defined benefits obligation for employee service in prior periods, resulting in the current period from the introduction of, or change to post-employment benefits, is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. To the extent that the benefits are already vested immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a defined benefit plan, the Group recognizes the past service cost immediately.

(v) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are recognized as an expense when the Group is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if the Group has made an offer of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(20) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The risks and uncertainties that inevitably surround many events and circumstances are taken into account in reaching the best estimate of a provision. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined at the present value of the expected future cash flows.

Where some or all of the expenditures required to settle a provision are expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement shall be recognized when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the entity settles the obligation. The reimbursement shall be treated as a separate asset.

Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.

A provision shall be used only for expenditures for which the provision was originally recognized.

(21) Foreign currencies

(i) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated to the functional currency using the reporting dates exchange rate. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined.

Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognized in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the retranslation of available-for-sale equity instruments, a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation, or qualifying cash flow hedges, which are recognized in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

(ii) Foreign operations

If the presentation currency of the Group is different from a foreign operations functional currency, the financial statements of the foreign operation are translated into the presentation currency using the following methods:

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, whose functional currency is not the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, are translated to presentation currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to functional currency at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(21) Foreign currencies, Continued

Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition of that foreign operation is treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation. Thus they are expressed in the functional currency of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.

When a foreign operation is disposed of, the relevant amount in the translation is transferred to profit or loss as part of the profit or loss on disposal. On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the relevant proportion of such cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. In any other partial disposal of a foreign operation, the relevant proportion is reclassified to profit or loss.

(22) Equity capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of ordinary shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

When the Group repurchases its share capital, the amount of the consideration paid is recognized as a deduction from equity and classified as treasury shares. The profits or losses from the purchase, disposal, reissue, or retirement of treasury shares are not recognized as current profit or loss. If the Group acquires and retains treasury shares, the consideration paid or received is directly recognized in equity.

(23) Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods, rendering of services or use of the Group assets is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Returns, trade discounts and volume rebates are recognized as a reduction of revenue.

(i) Services

Revenue from cellular services consists of revenue from basic charges, voice charges, data charges, data-roaming services and interconnection charges. Such revenues are recognized as services are performed. Revenues received for the activation of service are deferred and recognized over the average customer retention period.

Revenue from fixed-line services includes domestic short and long distance charges, international phone connection charges, and broadband internet services. Such revenues are recognized as the related services are performed.

Revenue from services rendered is recognized in profit or loss in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date. The stage of completion is assessed by reference to surveys of work performed.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(23) Revenue, Continued

(ii) Goods sold

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists, usually in the form of an executed sales agreement, that the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.

(iii) Customer loyalty programmes

For customer loyalty programmes, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between the award credits and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to the award credits is estimated by reference to the fair value of the services to be provided with respect to the redeemable award credits. The fair value of the services to be provided with respect to the redeemable portion of the award credits granted to the customers in accordance with customer loyalty programmes is estimated taking into account the expected redemption rate and timing of the expected redemption. Considerations allocated to the award credits are deferred and revenue is recognized when the award credits are recovered and the Group performs its obligation to provide the service. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the relative size of the total award credits that are expected to be redeemed and the redeemed award credits in exchange for services.

(iv) Bundled arrangements

When the Group sells both handsets and wireless services to subscribers, the Group recognizes these transactions separately as sales for handset sales and wireless telecommunication services.

(24) Finance income and finance costs

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend income, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and gains on hedging instruments that are recognized in profit or loss. Interest income is recognized as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest rate method. Dividend income is recognized in profit or loss on the date that the Groups right to receive payment is established.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and losses on hedging instruments that are recognized in profit or loss. Interest expense on borrowings and debentures are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate method.

(25) Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(25) Income taxes, Continued

(i) Current tax

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable profit or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. The taxable profit is different from the accounting profit for the period since the taxable profit is calculated excluding the temporary differences, which will be taxable or deductible in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future periods, and non-taxable or non-deductible items from the accounting profit.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized, using the asset-liability method, in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all taxable temporary differences. A deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which they can be utilized. However, deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill, or the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting profit or loss nor taxable income.

The Group recognizes a deferred tax liability for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates, and interests in joint ventures, except to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The Group recognizes a deferred tax asset for all deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduces the carrying amount to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilized.

101

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to offset the related current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis.

Income tax expense in relation to dividend payments is recognized when liabilities relating to the dividend payments are recognized.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(26) Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Parent Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible notes and share options granted to employees.

(27) Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Groups business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative consolidated statement of comprehensive income is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

(28) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

The following new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards have been published and are mandatory for the Group for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2012, and the Group has not early adopted them.

(i) K-IFRS No.1110, Consolidated Financial Statements

The standard introduces a single control model to determine whether an investee should be consolidated. The standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with early adoption permitted.

(ii) K-IFRS No.1111, Joint Arrangements

The standard classifies joint arrangements into two types - joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint operators) have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint venturers) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. The standard requires a joint operator to recognize and measure the assets and liabilities (and recognize the related revenues and expenses) in relation to its interest in the arrangement in accordance with relevant IFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The standard requires a joint venturer to recognize an investment and to account for that investment using the equity method. The standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with early adoption permitted.

(iii) K-IFRS No.1112, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

The standard brings together into a single standard all the disclosure requirements about an entitys interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. The Group is currently assessing the disclosure requirements for interests in subsidiaries, interests in joint arrangements and associates and unconsolidated structured entities in comparison with the existing disclosures. The standard requires the disclosure of information about the nature, risks and financial effects of these interests. The standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with early adoption permitted.

(iv) Amendments to K-IFRS No. 1019, Employee Benefits

The standard requires recognition of actuarial gains and losses immediately in other comprehensive income and to calculate expected return on plan assets based on the rate used to discount the defined benefit obligation. The standard will be applied retrospectively for the Groups annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

(v) K-IFRS No. 1113, Fair Value Measurement

The standard defines fair value and a single framework for fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard will be applied prospectively for the Groups annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

(vi) Amendments to K-IFRS No. 1001, Presentation of Financial Statements

The amendments require presenting in other comprehensive income on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently (reclassification adjustments). The amendment is mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012.

Management is in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, of applying these standards on its financial position and results of operations.

Intersegment sales and purchases are conducted on an arms-length basis and eliminated on consolidation. Since there are no intersegment sales of inventory, there is no unrealized intersegment profit to be eliminated on consolidation. The Group principally operates its business in its domestic market in Korea and the amounts outside of Korea are immaterial, therefore no entity-wide geographical information is presented.

No single customer contributed 10% or more to the Groups total sales for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Financial Risk Management

(1) Financial risk management

The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Market risk is the risk related to the changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. The Group implements a risk management system to monitor and manage these specific risks.

146

The Groups financial assets under financial risk management consist of cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments, available-for-sale financial assets, trade and other receivables. Financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables, borrowings, and debentures.

1) Market risk

(i) Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk mainly on exchange fluctuations on recognized assets and liabilities. The Group manages currency risk by currency forward, etc. if needed to hedge currency risk on business transactions. Currency risk occurs on forecasted transaction and recognized assets and liabilities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Group.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

(In millions of won, thousands of U.S. dollars, thousands of Euros, thousands of Japanese Yen, thousands of other currencies)
Assets			Liabilities
Foreign currencies		Won translation	Foreign currencies		Won translation
USD	127,122	￦	136,161	1,859,170	￦	1,991,357
EUR	8,573		12,142	3,890		5,509

Others	65		36	3,104		5,157
		￦	150,108		￦	2,408,681

In addition, the Group has entered into cross currency swaps to hedge against currency risk related to foreign currency borrowings and debentures. (Refer to Note 20)

As of December 31, 2012, effects on income (loss) before income tax as a result of change in exchange rate by 10% are as follows:

(In millions of won)
	If increased by 10%		If decreased by 10%

Financial Risk Management, Continued

(ii) Equity price risk

The Group has equity securities which include listed and non-listed securities for its liquidity and operating purpose. As of December 31, 2012, available-for-sale equity instruments measured at fair value amount to ￦ 765,760 million.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Since the Groups interest bearing assets are mostly fixed-interest bearing assets, as such, the Groups revenue and operating cash flow are not influenced by the changes in market interest rates. However, the Group still has interest rate risk arising from borrowings and debentures.

Accordingly, the Group performs various analysis of interest rate risk, which includes refinancing, renewal, alternative financing and hedging instrument option, to reduce interest rate risk and to optimize its financing.

147

The Groups interest rate risk arises from floating-rate borrowings and payables. As of December 31, 2012, floating-rate debentures and borrowings amount to ￦ 324,681 million and ￦ 107,110 million, respectively, and the Group has entered into interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk related to floating-rate borrowings and debentures. (Refer to Note 20) If interest rate only increases (decreases) by 1%, income before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012 would not have been changed due to the interest expense from floating-rate borrowings and debentures.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet his/her contractual obligations. The maximum credit exposure as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

(In millions of won)	2012	2011
Cash and cash equivalents	￦	920,125	1,650,794
Financial instruments		514,561	987,191

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss		16,045	17,635
	￦	5,461,163	7,738,103

To manage credit risk, the Group evaluates the credit worthiness of each customer or counterparty considering the partys financial information, its own trading records and other factors; based on such information, the Group establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.

Financial Risk Management, Continued

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Group has no trade and other receivables or loans which have indications of significant impairment loss or are overdue for a prolonged period. As a result, the Group believes that the possibility of default is remote. Also, the Groups credit risk can rise due to transactions with financial institutions related to its cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments and derivates. To minimize such risk, the Group has a policy to deal with high credit worthy financial institutions. The amount of maximum exposure to credit risk of the Group is the carrying amount of financial assets as of December 31, 2012.

In addition, the aging of trade and other receivables that are over due at the end of the reporting period but not impaired is stated in Note 6 and the analysis of financial assets that are individually determined to be impaired at the end of the reporting period is stated in Note 27.

3) Liquidity risk

The Groups approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will always maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents balances and have enough liquidity through various committed credit lines. The Group maintains flexibly enough liquidity under credit lines through active operating activities.

Contractual maturities of financial liabilities as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

(In millions of won)	Carrying amount	Contractual cash flows	Less than 1 year	1 - 5 years	More than 5 years
Accounts payable - trade	￦	253,884	253,884	253,871	13

The Group does not expect that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier or at different amounts.

(*1) Includes estimated interest to be paid and excludes discounts on bonds.

(*2) Excludes discounts on accounts payable-other and others.

(2) Capital management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a business while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of its debt and equity balance. The overall strategy of the Group is the same as that of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The Group monitors its debt-equity ratio as a capital management indicator. This ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total equity; the total debt and equity is extracted from the financial statements.

Financial Risk Management, Continued

Debt-equity ratio as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

(In millions of won)	December 31, 2012	December 31, 2011
Liabilities	￦	12,740,777	11,633,327
Equity		12,854,782	12,732,709
Debt-equity ratio		99.11 %	91.37 %

(3) Fair value

Fair value of the financial instruments that are traded in an active market is measured based on the quoted market price at the end of the reporting date. Disclosed market price of the financial assets held by the Group is the bid price.

Fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using the valuation method. The Group uses the various valuation methods and makes assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period. Fair value of financial instruments such as long-term liabilities is measured using the various methods including estimated discounted cash flow method.

Fair values of accounts receivable - trade, and accounts payable - trade are considered to be carrying amount less impairment and fair value of financial liabilities for the disclosure purpose is estimated by discounting contractual future cash flows using the current market interest rate used for the similar financial instruments by the Group.

Interest rates used by the Group for the fair value measurement as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

	Interest rate
Derivative instruments	2.86% ~ 4.04%
Borrowings and debentures	3.12% ~ 3.20%

Independent Auditors Report

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders

SK Telecom Co., Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying separate statement of financial position of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the Company), as of December 31, 2012, and the related separate statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these separate financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these separate financial statements based on our audit. Separate financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011, presented for comparative purposes, are audited by Deloitte Anjin LLC and their report thereon, dated March 13, 2012, stated that the separate financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the separate financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the separate financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards.

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the following:

As discussed in note 2, the Company adopted amendments to K-IFRS No.1001, Presentation of Financial Statements from the annual period ended December 31, 2012. The amendment requires operating income, which is calculated as operating revenue less operating expense, to be separately presented on the separate statement of income. Operating expense represents expense incur from the Companys main operating activities and includes cost of products that have been resold, and selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company applied this change in accounting policies retrospectively, and accordingly restated the comparative information of the separate statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to audit such separate financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries. Accordingly, this report is for use by those knowledgeable about Korean auditing standards and their application in practice.

(2) Associates and jointly controlled entities in the separate financial statements

(5) Non-derivative financial assets

The Company recognizes and measures non-derivative financial assets by the following four categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets. The Company recognizes financial assets in the separate statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

(ii) Held-to-maturity investments

A non-derivative financial asset with a fixed or determinable payment and fixed maturity, for which the Company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

(iii) Loans and receivables

(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(5) Non-derivative financial assets, Continued

(v) De-recognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Company is recognized as a separate asset or liability. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the transferred financial assets, the Company continues to recognize the transferred financial assets and recognizes financial liabilities for the consideration received.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements

(vi) Offsetting between financial assets and financial liabilities

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the statement of financial position only when the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, and there is the intention to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(6) Derivative financial instruments, including hedge accounting

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

(i) Hedge accounting

The Company holds forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other derivative contracts to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Company designated derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of assets, liabilities or firm commitments (a fair value hedge) and foreign currency risk of highly probable forecasted transactions or firm commitments (a cash flow hedge).

On initial designation of the hedge, the Company formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and hedged item(s), including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship

Fair value hedge

Changes in the fair value of a derivative hedging instrument designated as a fair value hedge are recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value for a derivative hedging instrument and the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in profit or loss in the same line item of the statement of income. The Company discontinues fair value hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or if the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. Any adjustment arising from gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is amortized to profit or loss from the date the hedge accounting is discontinued.

(ii) Separable embedded derivatives

Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately only if the following criteria have been met:

(a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to those of the host contract;

(b) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and

Changes in the fair value of separable embedded derivatives are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

(iii) Other derivative financial instruments

Changes in the fair value of other derivative financial instrument not designated as a hedging instrument are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(7) Impairment of financial assets

Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes following loss events:

significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;

a breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrowers financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider;

it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;

the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or

In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.

If financial assets have objective evidence that they are impaired, impairment losses should be measured and recognized.

(i) Financial assets measured at amortized cost

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of its estimated future cash flows discounted at the assets original effective interest rate. If it is not practicable to obtain the instruments estimated future cash flows, impairment losses would be measured by using prices from any observable current market transactions. The Company can recognize impairment losses directly or establish a provision to cover impairment losses. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized (such as an improvement in the debtors credit rating), the previously recognized impairment loss shall be reversed either directly or by adjusting an allowance account.

(8) Property, plant and equipment, Continued

Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment at cost or, if appropriate, as separate items if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Notes to the Separate Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

The estimated useful lives of the Companys property, plant and equipment are as follows:

	Useful lives (years)
Buildings and structures	15, 30
Machinery	3 ~ 6
Other property, plant and equipment (Other PP&E)	4 ~ 10

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

(9) Borrowing costs

The Company capitalizes borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognized in expense as incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that requires a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Financial assets and inventories that are manufactured or otherwise produced over a short period of time are not qualifying assets. Assets that are ready for their intended use or sale when acquired are not qualifying assets.

To the extent that the Company borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the Company determines the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings. To the extent that the Company borrows funds generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the Company shall determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalization rate shall be the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Company that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The amount of borrowing costs that the Company capitalizes during a period shall not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred during that period.

(11) Government grants

Government grants are not recognized unless there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the grants conditions and that the grant will be received.

(i) Grants related to assets

Government grants whose primary condition is that the Company purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long-term assets are deducted in calculating the carrying amount of the asset. The grant is recognized in profit or loss over the life of a depreciable asset as a reduction to depreciation expense.

(ii) Grants related to expense

Government grants which are intended to compensate the Company for expenses incurred are deducted from the related expenses.

(12) Investment property

Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of investment property at cost or, if appropriate, as separate items if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Investment property except for land, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over 30 years as estimated useful lives.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

(13) Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Companys non-financial assets, other than assets arising from employee benefits, inventories, deferred tax assets and non-current assets held for sale, are reviewed at the end of the reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assets recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, are tested for impairment annually by comparing their recoverable amount to their carrying amount.

Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

(13) Impairment of non-financial assets, Continued

The Company estimates the recoverable amount of an individual asset, if it is impossible to measure the individual recoverable amount of an asset, then the Company estimates the recoverable amount of cash-generating unit (CGU). A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. The value in use is estimated by applying a pre-tax discount rate that reflect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU for which estimated future cash flows have not been adjusted, to the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss if the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

(14) Leases

The Company classifies and accounts for leases as either a finance or operating lease, depending on the terms. Leases where the Company assumes substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

(i) Finance leases

At the commencement of the lease term, the Company recognizes as finance assets and finance liabilities in its separate statements of financial position, the lower amount of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. Any initial direct costs are added to the amount recognized as an asset.

The depreciable amount of a leased asset is allocated to each accounting period during the period of expected use on a systematic basis consistent with the depreciation policy the lessee adopts for depreciable assets that are owned. If there is no reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. The Company reviews to determine whether the leased asset may be impaired.

(ii) Operating leases

(iii) Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease

At inception or reassessment of the arrangement, the Company separates payments and other consideration required by such an arrangement into those for the lease and those for other elements on the basis of their relative fair values. If the Company concludes for a financial lease that it is impracticable to separate the payments reliably, the Company recognizes an asset and a liability at an amount equal to the fair value of the underlying asset that was identified as the subject of the lease. Subsequently, the liability shall be reduced as payments are made and an imputed finance charge on the liability recognized using the purchasers incremental borrowing rate of interest.

(15) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. In order to be classified as held for sale, the asset (or disposal group) must be available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale must be highly probable. The assets or disposal group that are classified as non-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. The Company recognizes an impairment loss for any initial or subsequent write-down of an asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell, and a gain for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell, up to the cumulative impairment loss previously recognized in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1036, Impairment of Assets.

A non-current asset that is classified as held for sale or part of a disposal group classified as held for sale is not depreciated (or amortized).

(16) Non-derivative financial liabilities

The Company classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of financial liabilities. The Company recognizes financial liabilities in the separate statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial liability.

(i) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

(ii) Other financial liabilities

(17) Employee benefits

(i) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. When an employee has rendered service to the Company during an accounting period, the Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

(ii) Other long-term employee benefits

Other long-term employee benefits include employee benefits that are settled beyond 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service, and are calculated at the present value of the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, less the fair value of any related assets. The present value is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using the interest rate of corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Companys obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. Any actuarial gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

(iii) Retirement benefits: defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Companys net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of plan assets is deducted. The calculation is performed annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Companys obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. The Company recognizes all actuarial gains and losses arising from actuarial assumption changes and experiential adjustments in other comprehensive income when incurred.

When the fair value of plan assets exceeds the present value of the defined benefit obligation, the Company recognizes an asset, to the extent of the total of cumulative unrecognized past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reduction in the future contributions to the plan.

Past service costs which are the change in the present value of the defined benefits obligation for employee service in prior periods, resulting in the current period from the introduction of, or change to post-employment benefits, is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. To the extent that the benefits are already vested immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a defined benefit plan, the Company recognizes the past service cost immediately.

(18) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

(19) Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Company entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated to the functional currency using the reporting dates exchange rate.

(i) Services

(ii) Goods sold

When two or more revenue generating activities or deliverables are sold under a single arrangement, each deliverable that is considered to be a separate unit of account is accounted for separately. The allocation of consideration from a revenue arrangement to its separate units of account is based on the relative fair values of each unit.

(iii) Customer loyalty programmes

For customer loyalty programmes, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between the award credits and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to the award credits is estimated by reference to the fair value of the services to be provided with respect to the redeemable award credits. The fair value of the services to be provided with respect to the redeemable portion of the award credits granted to the customers in accordance with customer loyalty programmes is estimated taking into account the expected redemption rate and timing of the expected redemption.Considerations allocated to the award credits are deferred and revenue is recognized when the award credits are recovered and the Company performs its obligation to provide the service. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the relative size of the total award credits that are expected to be redeemed and the redeemed award credits in exchange for services.

Financial Risk Management

(1) Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Market risk is the risk related to the changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. The Company implements a risk management system to monitor and manage these specific risks.

The Companys financial assets under financial risk management consist of cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments, available-for-sale financial assets, trade and other receivables. Financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables, borrowings, and debentures.

1) Market risk

(i) Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk mainly on exchange fluctuations on recognized assets and liabilities. The Company manages currency risk by currency forward, etc. if needed to hedge currency risk on business transactions. Currency risk occurs on forecasted transaction and recognized assets and liabilities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

(In millions of won, thousands of U.S. dollars, thousands of Euros, thousands of Japanese Yen, thousands of other currencies)
Assets			Liabilities
Foreign currencies		Korean won equivalent	Foreign currencies		Korean won equivalent

As of December 31, 2012, effects on income (loss) before income tax as a result of change in exchange rate by 10% are as follows:

(In millions of won)

SGD		(1	)	1
Others		(497	)	497
	￦	(32,413	)	32,413

(ii) Equity price risk

The Company has equity securities which include listed and non-listed securities for its liquidity and operating purpose. As of December 31, 2012, available-for-sale equity instruments measured at fair value amounts to ￦ 730,754 million.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Since the Companys interest bearing assets are mostly fixed-interest bearing assets, as such, the Companys revenue and operating cash flow are not influenced by the changes in market interest rates. However, the Company still has interest rate risk arising from borrowings and debentures.

Accordingly, the Company performs various analysis of interest rate risk, which includes refinancing, renewal, alternative financing and hedging instrument option, to reduce interest rate risk and to optimize its financing.

The Companys interest rate risk arises from floating-rate borrowings and payables. As of December 31, 2012, floating-rate debentures and borrowings amount to ￦ 324,681 million and ￦ 107,110 million, respectively, and the Company has entered into interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk related to floating-rate borrowings and debentures (Refer to Note 17). If interest rate only increases (decreases) by 1%, income before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012 would not have been changed due to the interest expense from floating-rate borrowings and debentures.

	￦	3,357,094	5,508,276

To manage credit risk, the Company evaluates the credit worthiness of each customer or counterparty considering the partys financial information, its own trading records and other factors; based on such information, the Company establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company has no trade and other receivables or loans which have indications of significant impairment loss or are overdue for a prolonged period. As a result, the Company believes that the possibility of default is remote. Also, the Companys credit risk can rise due to transactions with financial institutions related to its cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments and derivates. To minimize such risk, the Company has a policy to deal with high credit worthy financial institutions. The amount of maximum exposure to credit risk of the Company is the carrying amount of financial assets as of December 31, 2012.

In addition, the aging of trade and other receivables that are overdue at the end of the reporting period but not impaired is stated in Note 5 and the analysis of financial assets that are individually determined to be impaired at the end of the reporting period is stated in note 25.

The Companys current liabilities are greater than current assets by ￦ 413.3 billion and ￦ 518.9 billion as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This was primarily caused by the acquisition of ownership interests in SK Hynix in February 2012. The Company plans to fund current liabilities with the cash flows generated by operations and through additional borrowings, as necessary.

Contractual maturities of financial liabilities as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

	￦	8,362,439	9,494,674	3,358,831	3,463,950	2,671,893

The Company does not expect that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier or at different amounts.

(*1) Includes estimated interest to be paid and excludes discounts on bonds.

(*2) Excludes discounts on accounts payable-other and others.

(2) Capital management

The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a business while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of its debt and equity balance. The overall strategy of the Company is the same as that of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Independent Accountants Review Report on Internal Accounting Control System (IACS)

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

To the Representative Director of

SK Telecom Co., Ltd.

We have reviewed the accompanying Report on the Managements Assessment of IACS (the Managements Report) of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the Company) As of December 31, 2012. The Managements Report, and the design and operation of IACS are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to review the Managements Report and issue a review report based on our procedures. The Companys management stated in the accompanying Managements Report that based on the assessment of the IACS As of December 31, 2012, the Companys IACS has been appropriately designed and is operating effectively As of December 31, 2012, in all material respects, in accordance with the IACS Framework established by the Korea Listed Companies Association.

We conducted our review in accordance with the IACS Review Standards established by the Korean Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform a review, objective of which is to obtain a lower level of assurance than an audit, of the Managements Report in all material respects. A review includes obtaining an understanding of a companys IACS and making inquiries regarding the Managements Report and, when deemed necessary, performing a limited inspection of underlying documents and other limited procedures.

The Companys IACS represents internal accounting policies and a system to manage and operate such policies to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial statements prepared, in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards, for the purpose of preparing and disclosing reliable accounting information. Because of its inherent limitations, IACS may not prevent or detect a material misstatement of the financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of IACS to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Managements Report referred to above is not fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with the IACS Framework established by the Korea Listed Companies Association.

Our review is based on the Companys IACS As of December 31, 2012, and we did not review its IACS subsequent to December 31, 2012. This report has been prepared pursuant to the Acts on External Audit for Stock Companies in the Republic of Korea and may not be appropriate for other purposes or for other users.
