<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have two reportable operating segments &#150; a wireline communications segment and a PCS
services (including IMT-2000 Services) segment. The wireline communications segment includes all
services provided to fixed-line customers, including local, domestic long-distance and
international long-distance telephone services, interconnection service, Internet services
(including broadband Internet access service) and data communication service. The PCS services
segment includes PCS services (including sales of PCS handsets) and IMT-2000 services. Our
operations such as submarine cable construction and group telephone management that are provided by
some of our consolidated subsidiaries are included in the &#147;Miscellaneous&#148; segment. The revenues
from the &#147;Miscellaneous&#148; segment are included in &#147;Miscellaneous&#148; in the above table. The
discussion of our segment information below is on a pre-consolidation basis.

2.3% decrease from operating revenues of Won 8,686&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004.
The decrease in operating revenues was due primarily to (1)&nbsp;a 30.3% decrease in sales of goods to
Won 760&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 from Won 1,090&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period
in 2004 and (2)&nbsp;a 6.8% decrease in telephone service revenues to Won

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">2,942&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 from Won 3,157&nbsp;billion in the corresponding
period in 2004. These decreases were partially offset by (1)&nbsp;a 12.9% increase in PCS services
revenues to Won 2,560&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 from Won 2,268&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2004 and (2)&nbsp;a 7.5% increase in Internet services revenues to Won 1,393
billion in the first six months of 2005 from Won 1,295&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The 30.3% decrease in our sales of goods resulted primarily from a lower level of PCS handsets
sold in the first six months of 2005 compared to the corresponding period in 2004. We recorded a
significantly higher level of PCS handset sales in the first six months of 2004 compared to other
periods as a result of the implementation of mobile number portability by the Ministry of
Information and Communication for subscribers of SK Telecom starting on January&nbsp;1, 2004. Mobile
number portability allowed mobile telephone service subscribers to switch their mobile service
provider while retaining the same mobile phone number. Following the implementation of mobile
number portability, approximately 861 thousand of SK Telecom&#146;s subscribers switched to KTF in the
first six months of 2004, and these subscribers were required to purchase PCS handsets in order to
switch to KTF because SK Telecom&#146;s service is a cellular service while KTF is a PCS service. The
6.8% decrease in telephone service revenues resulted primarily from a decrease in land-to-mobile
interconnection charges, as well as a reduction in the usage of our fixed-line domestic
long-distance and local telephone services. Land-to-mobile interconnection charges decreased by
8.9% to Won 867&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 compared to Won 952&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2004 primarily as a result of a decrease in interconnection usage charges
collected from landline users for calls initiated by landline users to mobile service subscribers,
as well as a decrease in the volume of calls requiring interconnection service resulting from
higher volume of mobile-to-mobile calls. Starting September&nbsp;1, 2004, interconnection usage charges
per minute decreased to Won 87.0, Won 82.0 and Won 77.2 for weekday, weekend and evening calls,
respectively, from Won 89.0, Won 84.0 and Won 79.2, respectively. Revenues from our domestic
long-distance telephone service decreased by 13.0% to Won 389&nbsp;billion in the first six months of
2005 compared to Won 447&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004 and revenues from our local
telephone service decreased by 3.2% to Won 1,445&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 compared
to Won 1,492&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004, primarily as a result of a decrease in
the volume of domestic long-distance and local fixed-line calls resulting from higher volume of
mobile-to-mobile calls, as well as a decrease in the number of lines in service. The number of
lines in service decreased to 21,056 thousand as of June&nbsp;30, 2005 from 21,443 thousand as of June
30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The 12.9% increase in our PCS service revenues was due principally to an increase in the
number of subscribers primarily as a result of an increase in the number of PCS service subscribers
primarily resulting from mobile number portability for subscribers of LG Telecom starting on
January&nbsp;1, 2005, and to a lesser extent, an increase in the average monthly revenue per subscriber.
The number of PCS service subscribers, including the resale subscribers of KT Corporation,
increased to 12.2&nbsp;million as of June&nbsp;30, 2005 from 11.0&nbsp;million as of June&nbsp;30, 2004. The average
monthly revenue per subscriber of KTF increased by 2.2% to Won 29,884 compared to Won 29,248 in the
corresponding period in 2004, primarily as a result of addition of high volume mobile service users
of SK Telecom who have elected to switch their mobile service provider to KTF. The 7.5% increase
in Internet service revenues, which consist of broadband Internet access services and other
Internet-related services, was primarily attributable

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is a discussion of the principal components of our operating expenses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Wireline Communications. </I>Operating expenses increased by 6.2% to Won 5,020&nbsp;billion in the
first six months of 2005 compared to Won 4,728&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>PCS Service. </I>Operating expenses decreased by 7.8% to Won 2,515&nbsp;billion in the first six
months of 2005 compared to Won 2,728&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation and Amortization
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by 7.7% to Won 1,706&nbsp;billion in the first six
months of 2005 compared to Won 1,848&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004, due primarily to
a decrease in capital expenditures in our property and equipment in recent years as a result of a
more efficient utilization of our facilities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Wireline Communications. </I>Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by 7.4% to Won 1,021
billion in the first six months of 2005 compared to Won 1,103&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period
in 2004, due primarily to the reason discussed above.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>PCS Service. </I>Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 6.7% to Won 569&nbsp;billion in
the first six months of 2005 compared to Won 534&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004 as a
result of the significant capital expenditures KTF made in 2004, which depreciation expense was not
fully recognized in the first six months of 2004 depending on the timing of the expenditures.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Salaries and Related Costs</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The principal components of salaries and related costs are salaries and wages, provisions for
retirement and severance benefits and employee benefits. Employee benefits include meal subsidies
and commuting subsidies. The retirement and severance benefit is a lump-sum amount paid to
employees who have been employed by us for more than one year when they leave.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Salaries and related costs increased by 11.8% to Won 1,555&nbsp;billion in the first six months of
2005 compared to Won 1,390&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004, primarily as a result of a
10.6% increase in salaries and wages resulting from a special incentive program to employees of KTF
who successfully recruited PCS subscribers, as well as a 19.3% increase in employee benefits
primarily due to 60 shares of KT Corporation that were issued, pursuant to a collective bargaining
agreement entered into in 2005, to each employee of KT Corporation who was subject to the employee
stock ownership plan. The following table shows a breakdown of our salaries and related costs and
each amount as a percentage of total operating revenues in the first six months of 2004 and 2005.

compared to the corresponding period in 2004. We recorded a significantly higher level of PCS
handsets sales in the first six months of 2004 compared to other periods primarily from sales to

in the corresponding period in 2004. We concluded that it was not probable that we would be able
to realize the tax benefits of our equity in losses of affiliates and, as a result, wrote off
deferred income tax assets in the amount of Won 46&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005 and Won
94&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2004. The effective tax rates, after adjustments of
certain differences between amounts reported for financial accounting and income tax purposes, were
29.3% in the first six months of 2005 compared to 33.5% in the corresponding period in 2004. See
Note 26(b) of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to the above income taxes, we received a preliminary notice from the National Tax
Service in April&nbsp;2004 of an additional assessment of Won 74&nbsp;billion, and we are currently appealing
such ruling. Although we have appealed to the National Tax Tribunal, we have provided for the tax
assessment of Won 45&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004. In addition, as a result of the
final tax return for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, we recognized prior year&#146;s additional income
tax expense of Won 14&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005. See Note 26(b) of Notes to

in 2004 due primarily to less write-off of deferred income tax assets and greater tax credits in

earnings before income taxes by KTF. Income taxes in these periods also included tax credits from
accumulated loss carried forward from KTM.com that existed before KTM.com&#146;s merger into KTF. As of
June&nbsp;30, 2005, KTF&#146;s remaining loss carryforwards are Won 81&nbsp;billion and will expire during 2005.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Historically, uses of cash consisted principally of purchases of property, plant and equipment
and other assets and repayments of long-term debt. In recent years, we have also used cash for
acquisition of treasury shares, dividend payment and payment of retirement and severance benefits
for early retirement plans. From time to time, we may also require capital for investments
involving acquisitions and strategic relationships.

<DIV style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash used in investing activities was Won 1,853&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004
and Won 78&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2005. Our purchases of property, plant and
equipment decreased from Won 1,340&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 to Won 1,003&nbsp;billion in
the corresponding period in 2005. We recorded an increase in short-term financial instruments of
Won 624&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 compared to a decrease in short-term financial
instruments of Won 756&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2005. Our cash proceeds from sale of
available-for-sale securities increased from Won 306&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 to Won
479&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2005, while our purchases of available-for-sale
securities decreased from Won 317&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 to Won 213&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash provided by financing activities was Won 416&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004
compared to net cash used in financing activities of Won 3,317&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period
in 2005. We used cash of Won 1,452&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 and Won 3,803&nbsp;billion
in the corresponding period in 2005 for repayment of outstanding long-term debt. Our repayment
included repayment of all outstanding principal amount of the 3.00% convertible notes due 2005 upon
maturity, as well as repayment of substantially all outstanding principal amount of the 0.25%
convertible notes due 2007 resulting from exercise of option by the noteholders to redeem the notes
in January&nbsp;2005. Cash proceeds from issuance of long-term debt decreased from Won 2,448&nbsp;billion in
the first six months of 2004 to Won 1,198&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2005. In
addition, we recorded an increase in short-term borrowings, net, of Won 63&nbsp;billion in the first six
months of 2004 compared to a decrease in short-term borrowings, net, of Won 158&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2005. In July&nbsp;2005, our board of directors declared an interim dividend of
Won 211&nbsp;billion. We made such cash dividend payments to our shareholders in August&nbsp;2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We anticipate that capital expenditures, and, to a lesser extent, repayment of outstanding
contractual obligations and commitments will represent the most significant use of funds for the
next several years. We may also require capital for investments involving acquisitions and
strategic relationships, as well as the purchase of additional treasury shares on the Stock Market
Division of the Korea Exchange.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our total capital expenditures are estimated to be approximately Won 1,340&nbsp;billion in the
second half of 2005. We compete in the telecommunications sector in Korea, which is rapidly
evolving. We also face increasing competition from new entrants to the market. We may need to
incur additional capital expenditures to keep up with unexpected developments in rapidly evolving
telecommunications technology.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Payments of contractual obligations and commitments will also require considerable resources.
In our ordinary course of business, we routinely enter into commercial commitments for various
aspects of our operations, including repair and maintenance. As of June&nbsp;30, 2005, we had various
contractual obligations and commitments which are more fully disclosed in the notes to our
consolidated financial statements.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have traditionally met our working capital and other capital requirements principally from
cash provided by operations, while raising the remainder of our requirements primarily through debt
financing. Until 1997, additional working capital and other requirements had been met primarily by
increases in non-interest bearing refundable deposits for telephone installation, although as a
result of a recent decline in these deposits, short-term and long-term debt and equity financings
have increasingly become important sources of cash. Net refundable deposits for telephone
installation decreased by Won 79&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 and Won 78&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2005. Accordingly, refundable deposits for telephone installation
decreased by 7.2% from Won 1,087&nbsp;billion as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 to Won 1,009&nbsp;billion as of June
30, 2005. Our major sources of cash have been net earnings before depreciation and amortization
and proceeds of long-term debt and other long-term liabilities, and we expect that these sources
will continue to be our principal sources of cash in the future. Net earnings before depreciation
and amortization were Won 2,430&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2004 and 2,327&nbsp;billion in the
corresponding period in 2005. Cash proceeds from long-term debt were Won 2,448&nbsp;billion in the
first six months of 2004 and Won 1,198&nbsp;billion in the corresponding period in 2005. Total
long-term debt, including the current portion, was Won 11,731&nbsp;billion as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 and
Won 9,154&nbsp;billion as of June&nbsp;30, 2005. The sources of such proceeds from long-term debt included
the issuances of Won-denominated bonds in Korea, as well as issuances of notes pursuant to our $2.0
billion Medium Term Notes program. We have issued notes in the amount of $1.1&nbsp;billion under the
program, and the unused portion of the program currently remains at $900&nbsp;million. In the second
half of 2005, we plan to incur additional long-term debt, subject to market conditions.

requirements and that we have a variety of alternatives available to us to satisfy our financial
requirements to the extent that they are not met by funds generated by operations, including the
issuance of debt securities and bank borrowings denominated in Won and various foreign currencies.
However, our ability to rely on some of these alternatives could be affected by factors such as the
liquidity of the Korean and other financial markets, prevailing interest rates, our credit rating
and the Government of Korea&#146;s policies regarding Won currency and foreign currency borrowings.
Other factors which could materially affect our liquidity in the future include unanticipated
increases in capital expenditures and decreases in cash provided by operations resulting from a
significant decrease in demand for our services. We may also need to raise additional capital
sooner than we expect in order to fund unanticipated investments and acquisitions. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to secure funds on satisfactory terms from financial institutions or
other sources that are sufficient to satisfy our unanticipated needs.

as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 compared to Won 1,441&nbsp;billion as of June&nbsp;30, 2005. Under Korean GAAP, bank
deposits and all highly liquid temporary cash instruments within maturities of three months are
considered as cash equivalents. Short-term financial instruments primarily consist of time and
trust deposits with maturities between four to twelve months. The decrease in cash, cash
equivalents and short-term financial instruments in the first six months of 2005 resulted primarily
from dividend payment and debt repayment.

compared to net earnings of Won 582&nbsp;billion under Korean GAAP, primarily because of differences in
the treatment of (1)&nbsp;deferred income tax methodology, (2)&nbsp;reversal of goodwill amortization and (3)
foreign currency translation of convertible notes, which more than offset the effect of differences
in the treatment of depreciation. In the first six months of 2005, we recorded net earnings of Won
642&nbsp;billion under U.S. GAAP compared to net earnings of Won 621&nbsp;billion under Korean GAAP,
primarily because of differences in the treatment of (1)&nbsp;reversal of goodwill amortization and (2)
deferred income tax methodology, which more than offset the effect of differences in the treatment
of (1)&nbsp;depreciation and (2)&nbsp;additional acquisitions of equity investees.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stockholders&#146; equity under U.S. GAAP was lower than under Korean GAAP by Won 2,366&nbsp;billion and
Won 2,433&nbsp;billion at December&nbsp;31, 2004 and June&nbsp;30, 2005, respectively, primarily as a result of
differences in the treatment of (1)&nbsp;minority interests and (2)&nbsp;impairment loss relating to equity
investee, which more than offset the effect of differences in the treatment of (1)&nbsp;reversal of

principal and interest denominated in one currency in place of principal and interest of long-term
debt denominated in other currency. See Note 23(e) of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for details of interest currency swap contracts outstanding as of June&nbsp;30, 2005. Under the
interest currency swap contracts, we recognized a valuation loss of Won 1&nbsp;billion and a valuation
gain of Won 44&nbsp;billion in the first six months of 2005. In addition, we settled five contracts in

earnings, changes in stockholders&#146; equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30,
2004 and 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company&#146;s
management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these consolidated financial statements
based on our review. We did not review the financial statements of KT Freetel Co., Ltd. (&#147;KTF&#148;),
48.1% and 48.7% owned subsidiary at June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, respectively, as of and for the
six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, which financial statements reflect total assets
constituting 29.5% and 30.1% as of June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, respectively, and total revenues
constituting 30.2% and 30.0% for the six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, respectively,
of the related consolidated totals. Those financial statements were reviewed by other accountants
whose report has been furnished to us, and our report, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included for KTF, is based solely on the report of the other accountants.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted our review in accordance with the Review Standards for Semiannual Financial
Statements established by Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review consists principally of
inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and, thus,
provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not
express an audit opinion.

statements of earnings, changes in stockholders&#146; equity and cash flows for the year then ended,

25, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion. We did not audit the financial statements of KTF, a
48.7% owned subsidiary at December&nbsp;31, 2004 as of and for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004. The
financial statements of KTF, which are included in the consolidated financial statements of the
Company, reflect total combined assets constituting 29.5% as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 and total
revenues constituting 30.5% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, of the related consolidated
totals. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished
to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for KTF, is based solely on
the report of the other auditors. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December&nbsp;31,
2004, presented for comparative purposes, is not different from the above-stated audited

    <TD>Upon the repeal of the Korea Telecom Act as of October&nbsp;1, 1997, KT became a government invested
institution regulated by the Korean Commercial Code and changed its name from Korea Telecom to
Korea Telecom Corp. pursuant to an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation. Shares of KT
were listed on the Korea Stock Exchange on December&nbsp;23, 1998. KT issued 24,282,195 additional
 shares on May&nbsp;29, 1999 and issued American Depository Shares (&#147;ADS&#148;) representing these new
 shares and government owned shares. On July&nbsp;2, 2001, additional ADS representing 55,502,161
government-owned shares were issued.</TD>

    <TD>Under Korean law, the MIC and other government entities have extensive authority to regulate
KT. The MIC has responsibility for approving rates for local service and interconnection
services provided by KT. Beginning in January&nbsp;1998, KT is allowed to set its own rates for
domestic long-distance service, international long-distance service and other services without
approval from the MIC.</TD>

    <TD>In recent years, KT has been subject to increasing competition as a result of the government&#146;s
issuance of additional licenses to create competition in the telecommunications market and to
foster new telecommunications business areas. Additionally, in June&nbsp;1997, the MIC awarded a
license to a second carrier to provide local telephone service. This new carrier commenced
operations in 1999. A third carrier commenced international long-distance service in 1997 and
domestic long-distance service in 1999. The entry of these new carriers into the local and
long-distance telephone service markets has had, and is expected to continue to have, a
negative impact on KT&#146;s telephone service revenues and profitability.</TD>

language consolidated financial statements that were prepared using accounting principles,
procedures and reporting practices generally accepted in the Republic of Korea (&#147;Korean
GAAP&#148;). The consolidated financial statements have been translated from those issued in the
Korean language into the English language, and have been modified to allow for the
formatting of the consolidated financial statements in a manner which is different from the
presentation under Korean financial statements practices. In addition, certain
modifications have been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to bring
the formal presentation into conformity with practices outside of Korea, and certain
information included in the Korean language statutory consolidated financial statements,
which management believes is not required for a fair presentation of KT&#146;s financial
position or results of operations, is not presented in the accompanying consolidated

three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading securities. Investments
in debt securities that the Company has the positive intention and ability to hold to
maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. Securities that are bought and held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term (thus held for only a short
period of time) are classified as trading securities. Trading generally reflects active and
frequent buying and selling, and trading securities are generally used to generate profit
on short-term differences in price. Investments not classified as either held-to-maturity
or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Such determination
is reassessed at each balance sheet date.</TD>

under the Company&#146;s significant influence, the Company utilizes the equity method of
accounting. Significant influence is generally deemed to exist if the Company can exercise
influence over the operating and financial policies of an investee. The ability to exercise
that influences may be indicated in several ways, such as the Company&#146;s representation on
its board of directors, the Company&#146;s participation in its policy making processes,
material transactions with the investee, interchange of managerial personnel, or
technological dependency. Also, if the Company owns directly or indirectly 20% or more of
the voting stock of an investee and the investee is not required to be consolidated (see
note 2(a)), the Company generally presumes that the investee is under significant
influence.</TD>

    <TD>Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2005, certain funds which met the above criteria were nevertheless
excluded from equity method accounting and instead accounted for as available-for-sale
securities and recorded at cost. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement
of Accounting Standards (&#147;SKAS&#148;) No.&nbsp;15 <I>&#147;Equity Method Accounting&#148;</I>. In accordance with SKAS
No.&nbsp;15, the Company accounted for the funds using the equity method. As a result of the
adoption of SKAS No.&nbsp;15, equity in gains of affiliates, net of W3,642&nbsp;million increased for
the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2005. As allowed by the statement, the Company did not
reclassify the prior year balances.</TD>

and is subsequently increased to reflect the Company&#146;s share of the investee income and
reduced to reflect the Company&#146;s share of the investee losses or dividends received. Any

impairment.</TD>

    <TD>Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2005, contingent liabilities were recognized when probable and
reasonably estimable. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company adopted Statements of Korea
Accounting Standards (&#147;SKAS&#148;) No.17 &#147;<I>Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets</I>&#148;. In accordance with the standard, contingent liabilities are recognized when all of
the followings are met: (1)&nbsp;an entity has a present obligation as a result of a past event,
(2)&nbsp;it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation, and (3)&nbsp;a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of
the obligation. The Company does not believe that the new criteria are significantly
different from the previous criteria. Accordingly, the adoption of this standard had no
impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.</TD>

non-current. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2005, per SKAS No.&nbsp;16, deferred tax assets and
liabilities shall be classified as current or non-current based on the classification of
the related assets or liabilities for financial reporting or the expected reversal date of
the temporary difference. The deferred tax amounts should be presented as a net current
asset or liability and a net non-current asset or liability. However, deferred income tax
assets and liabilities as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 were not reclassified based on the
transitional clause of SKAS No.&nbsp;16. If SKAS No.&nbsp;16 had been in effect as of December&nbsp;31,
2004, the net current portion of deferred income tax assets, net would have increased by
W272,254&nbsp;million and the net non-current deferred income tax assets, net would have
decreased by the same amount.</TD>

deposits (which are reflected as a liability) are to be refunded without interest to the telephone subscribers upon termination of service. For changes in
site classifications of telephones that were installed prior to January&nbsp;1, 1990, KT is obligated to refund the original deposit received plus the increased
deposit due to changes in site classifications.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">Beginning on September&nbsp;15, 1998, KT allowed customers to choose between alternative plans for basic telephone service. Under such plan, customers were
permitted the option to either place fully refundable deposits or pay a reduced non-refundable service initiation fee. The non-refundable service
installation fees were recorded as operating revenues. Refundable deposits continue to be subject to the same provisions as described above. Effective
April&nbsp;15, 2001, all new customers are required to pay a non-refundable service initiation fee.

    <TD>On February&nbsp;20, 2001, the Korean Fair Trade Commission (FTC)&nbsp;alleged that the Company had
unfairly assisted its affiliates by paying them unreasonably high service fees in violation
of the Fair Trade Laws. The FTC imposed a fine of approximately <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>30,700&nbsp;million, and the
Company recognized an expense of <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>30,700&nbsp;million for this claim during 2001. In October
2004, the Seoul High Court partially reversed the FTC&#146;s decision and decreased the fine
from <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>30,700&nbsp;million to <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>2,400&nbsp;million. During 2005, the Company and the FTC appealed this
decision to the Supreme Court of Korea. As of June&nbsp;30, 2005, the ruling of the Seoul High
Court&#146;s decision is not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.</TD>

    <TD>In the second half of 2004, the FTC began a separate antitrust investigation of the Company
into alleged unfair collaborative practices of fixed-line telephone and broadband Internet
service providers during the period from 2002 to 2004. On May&nbsp;25, 2005, the FTC imposed a
fine of <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>116&nbsp;billion to the Company related to local telephone service and leased line
service for Internet cafes. In addition, the FTC is still investigating domestic
long-distance telephone service, international long-distance telephone service and
broadband Internet access service. The FTC is expected to bring this case to its committee
for deliberation as early as September&nbsp;2005. Although the Company intends to contest this
ruling, the Company recognized this fine and an additional estimated fine within operating
expenses during the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2005.</TD>

    <TD>In April&nbsp;2004, the Company received a preliminary notice as a result of an audit by the
National Tax Service with respect to prior year income taxes, of an additional assessment
related to such prior years in the amount of <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>73,793&nbsp;million. Although the Company had
appealed to the National Tax Tribunal, it has provided for the tax assessment in the
financial statements for the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2004. In addition, in 2005,
as a result of the final tax return for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, the Company
recognized prior year&#146;s income tax expense of <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>14,105&nbsp;million during the six-month period
ended June&nbsp;30, 2005.</TD>

    <TD>For the six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, the Company concluded that it was
not probable that it would be able to realize the tax benefit of its equity in losses of
affiliates within the near future, which is construed usually to mean 5&nbsp;years. As a
result, the Company wrote off the related deferred income tax assets in the amount of
<STRIKE>W</STRIKE>93,961&nbsp;million and <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>46,444&nbsp;million by a charge to deferred income tax expense for the

    <TD>Following the Company&#146;s acquisition of a controlling financial interest in KTM in 2000, KTM
concluded that it was not likely that it would be able to realize the tax benefit of its loss
carryforward and, therefore, wrote off the related deferred tax assets in the amount of
<STRIKE>W</STRIKE>233,496&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2000 by a charge to deferred income tax expense in 2000. In
2001, KTM was merged into KTF with the combined entity operating under the name of KTF. Upon
the merger in 2001, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset for the net operating loss of
KTM. However, subsequent to the initial realization, the Company provided a valuation allowance
as a component of income tax expense for this deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of
realization. During the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, KTF was able to utilize
KTM&#146;s loss carryforward as a benefit to income tax expense in the amount of <STRIKE>W</STRIKE>33,628&nbsp;million and
<STRIKE>W</STRIKE>19,792&nbsp;million. In addition, during 2005, KTF further reduced its valuation allowance by
<STRIKE>W</STRIKE>7,833&nbsp;million for the portion of the net operating loss that KTF estimates that it will
utilize in the second half of 2005. As of June&nbsp;30, 2005, KTF&#146;s remaining loss carryforwards are
<STRIKE>W</STRIKE>81,430&nbsp;million, which will expire during 2005.</TD>

statement, deferred taxes are recognized on the temporary differences related to unrealized

The deferred tax amounts should be presented as a net current asset or liability and a net
non-current asset or liability. However, deferred income tax assets and liabilities as of

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">In 2005, the Company changed the estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation on
external modems, a component of machinery and equipments from six years to three years.
The newly estimated useful life reflects technological advances such as the replacement
cycle of modems. As a result of this change in accounting estimate, depreciation expense
for the six-month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2005 increased by <strike>W</strike>17,866&nbsp;million, as compared to
the amount which would have been reported using the previous useful life.

</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company has two reportable operating segments &#151; wireline communications and PCS services
(including IMT-2000 services). Wireline communications include all services provided to fixed
line customers, including internet services, data communication services, wire and other
facilities, leased line services and telephone services. PCS services provide both PCS service
and IMT-2000 service through the merger between two separate legal entities, KTF and KTICOM
during 2003. PCS service is a digital wireless telephone system that uses light handsets with a
long battery life to communicate via low-power antennas. PCS telephones have the capacity to
receive and send data as well as voice transmission. IMT-2000 service is a third-generation,
high-capacity wireless communication system that enables subscribers to utilize a full range of
mobile multi-media services including video phone and wireless data transmission. The
operations of all other entities which fall below the reporting thresholds are included in the
&#147;Miscellaneous&#148; segment below, and include entities providing, among others, submarine cable
construction and group telephone management.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company&#146;s reportable segments consist of separate legal entities that offer different
products and services and/or serve different customers. No single customer accounted for
revenues in excess of 10% of total revenues. The entities are managed differently since they
utilize different technology and marketing strategies and have different capital requirements.
Management primarily evaluates the performance of the segments based on operating income
(loss).
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company accounts for intersegment revenues and costs as if the related transactions were
with third parties. The adjustments included in &#147;Reconciling Adjustments&#148; line item &#147;Other
income (expense), net&#148; include minority interest in earnings of consolidated subsidiaries of
<strike>W</strike>52,523&nbsp;million and <strike>W</strike>141,910&nbsp;million for the six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005,
respectively, and elimination of the parent company&#146;s equity in net earnings of KTF and other
subsidiaries of <strike>W</strike>20,166&nbsp;million and <strike>W</strike>123,701&nbsp;million for the six-month periods ended June
30, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Reconciling adjustments also include reclassification of
amortization of goodwill between the line items &#147;Other income (expense), net&#148; and &#147;Operating
expenses &#150; depreciation and amortization&#148; in the amount of <strike>W</strike>147,153&nbsp;million and <strike>W</strike> 65,057
million for the six-month periods ended June&nbsp;30, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Additionally,
reconciling adjustments include intersegment eliminations in all line items.

requires that majority-owned subsidiaries be consolidated and that any entity of which the
Company owns twenty to fifty percent of total outstanding voting stock not be consolidated;
rather that entity should be accounted for under the equity method. The following table

    <TD>On September&nbsp;30, 2004, the FASB voted unanimously to delay the effective date of EITF 03-1<I>,
&#147;The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain
Investments.&#148; </I>The delay applies to both debt and equity securities and specifically applies
to impairments caused by interest rate and sector spreads. In addition, the provisions of
EITF 03-1 that have been delayed relate to the requirements that a company declare its
intent to hold the security to recovery and designate a recovery period in order to avoid
recognizing an other-than-temporary impairment charge through earnings. The FASB will be
issuing implementation guidance related to this topic. Once issued, the Company will
evaluate the impact of adopting EITF 03-1. The Company has included the disclosure
requirements of EITF 03-1 in the following paragraph.</TD>

    <TD>Under Korean GAAP, goodwill, which represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the
fair value of net identifiable assets acquired, is amortized on a straight-line basis over
its estimated economic useful life. The useful life of goodwill cannot exceed 20&nbsp;years.
When it is no longer probable that goodwill will be recovered from expected future economic
benefits, it is expensed immediately. Also, for investments in affiliated companies
accounted for using the equity method, the excess of acquisition cost of the affiliates
over the Company&#146;s share of their net assets at the acquisition date is being amortized by
the straight-line method over its estimated useful life.</TD>

    <TD>In 1995, KT adopted a method of depreciation, as allowed under Korean GAAP, whereby
property, plant and equipment placed in service at any time in the first half of the year
received a full year of depreciation expense, and property, plant and equipment placed in
service at any time in the second half of the year received one-half year of depreciation.
Also, as permitted under Korean GAAP, depreciation of these assets was based on lives which
are shorter than their economic useful lives. In 1996, KT readopted the policy previously
utilized, also acceptable under Korean GAAP, whereby property, plant and equipment is
depreciated from the actual date it is placed in service, while continuing to use useful
lives which are shorter than the economic useful lives of such assets. In 1998, under
Korean GAAP, as required under a ruling by the National Tax Service (which is also
applicable under Korean GAAP), the Company changed the estimated useful lives of certain
assets, including underground access to cable tunnels and concrete and steel telephone
poles acquired after 1995, from 6&nbsp;years to periods ranging from 20&nbsp;years to 40&nbsp;years, and
changed the depreciation method from the declining-balance method to the straight-line
method.</TD>

    <TD>Under U.S. GAAP, property, plant and equipment is generally depreciated over its estimated
useful life in a systematic and rational manner. In addition, the depreciation method in
the year of acquisition based on the Company&#146;s in-service dates for its capital additions
in 1995 described above, does not comply with U.S. GAAP in that significant depreciation
expense is recognized prior to the actual use of the asset. The change in estimated
useful lives in 1998, and the changes in 1998 and 1999 from the declining-balance method
to the straight-line method would also not be appropriate under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly,
adjustments have been reflected for U.S. GAAP purposes for the effect of each of these
items.</TD>

the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling cost, and
wasted material (spoilage). Under this Statement, such items will be recognized as
current-period charges. In addition, the Statement requires that allocation of fixed
production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the
production facilities. This Statement will be effective for the Company for inventory
costs incurred on or after January&nbsp;1, 2006. The Company believes that the adoption of this
statement will not have significant impact on its financial position or operating results.

47 provides guidance relating to the identification of and financial reporting for legal
obligations to perform an asset retirement activity. FIN 47 requires recognition of a
liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if
the liability&#146;s fair value can be reasonably estimated. The adoption of this statement did
not have any impact on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements.

statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine
either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 also
requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to
the direct effects of the change. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 154 as of January
1, 2006.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 6%">As described in note 2, the Korean Accounting Standards Board (&#147;KASB&#148;) has published a
series of Statements of Korea Accounting Standards (&#147;SKAS&#148;), which will gradually replace
the existing financial accounting standards, established by the Korea Financial Supervisory
Board. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2004, the Company adopted SKAS No.&nbsp;10 <I>&#147;Inventories</I>&#148;, No.&nbsp;12
&#147;<I>Construction-Type Contracts</I>&#148; and No.&nbsp;13 &#147;<I>Troubled Debt Restructuring</I>&#148;. Effective January
1, 2005, the Company adopted SKAS No.&nbsp;17 <I>&#147;Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets&#148;</I>. The adoption of these standards did not have any impact on net income,
stockholders&#146; equity or balance sheet classification under Korean GAAP as these standards
mainly clarified existing standards.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 6%">Effective January&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company adopted SKAS No.&nbsp;15 <I>&#147;Equity Method Accounting&#148;</I>. The
impact of adopting SKAS No.&nbsp;15 on the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP in 2005 is immaterial as
it relates to balance sheet classification.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 6%">Effective January&nbsp;1, 2005, , the Company adopted SKAS No.&nbsp;16 <I>&#147;Income Taxes&#148;</I>. The impact of
adopting SKAS No.&nbsp;16 on the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP in 2005 is described in footnote 35
(o). In addition, with the adoption of SKAS No.&nbsp;16 in 2005, there is no longer a GAAP
difference in the balance sheet classification of current and non-current deferred taxes
between U.S. GAAP and Korean GAAP.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 6%">Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding
convertible notes using the &#147;if-converted method&#148;. The denominator of the diluted earnings
per share computation is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that
would have been outstanding had the dilutive potential common stock been issued. In
addition, the numerator is adjusted to include the after-tax amount of interest and
foreign currency translation gain (loss)&nbsp;recognized associated with the convertible notes.
Bonds with warrants and stock options were not considered when calculating diluted
earnings per share because the exercise price of the warrants and stock options was
greater than the average market price of the shares and, therefore, the effect would have
been antidilutive.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is
more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the
generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary
differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax
liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this
assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future
taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management
believes that it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these
deductible differences and tax carryforwards.
