16. Is the Maturity of IT Environment enough?

In Korea, the domestic communication service market has over the past several years enjoyed a high growth rate thanks to the explosive spread of mobile telephone and high-speed Internet usage. However, as this growth pace starts slowing, voices of concern are being raised about whether the overall communication service market is reaching the limits of its growth capacity.

In contrast, as convergence between business spheres advances due to subscribers' convenience pursuit, needs are growing for data communication, and communication technology's increased capacity, with WiBro emerging as a new market opportunity.

The background to the rising interest in WiBro is that it is not only a demand for a Ubiquitous service environment that is possible anytime, anywhere, and with any device, but also because it can meet the supply & demand for all such as communication business provider's investment environment development to strengthen profitability security and competitiveness through WiBro.

consequently, IT Envirionment for Wibro seems to be matured enough.
