II. BUSINESS

1. Business Summary

A. Industry Status

(1) Characteristics of the Industry

     As of December 31, 2007, the number of domestic mobile phone subscribers reached 43.5 million and with a 89.8% penetration rate, and the Korean mobile communication market can be considered to have reached its maturation stage. However, considering the number of European countries with penetration rates exceeding 90%, additional future growth of the domestic market may be possible.

     The Korean mobile communications market continues to improve with the help of advances in network-related technology evidenced by the world’s first commercialization of CDMA2000 1x, CDMA 1x EV-DO, and the development of highly advanced handsets that enables the provision of convergence services for multimedia contents, mobile commerce, telematics, satellite DMB, digital home services and other related contents.

(3) Market Characteristics

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. Although demand has primarily been in the domestic market, as the business territory expands to overseas market, the size of overseas sales is expected to grow in the near future. Seasonal and economic fluctuations have much less impact on the Korean mobile communication market compared to other industries.

English Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Korean

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
SK Telecom Co., Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying non-consolidated balance sheets of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the related non-consolidated statements of income, appropriations of retained earnings and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related non-consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity for the year ended December 31, 2007, all expressed in Korean won. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the results of its operations, changes in its retained earnings and its cash flows for the years then ended, and the changes in its stockholders’ equity for the year ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea.

Our audits also comprehended the translation of the Korean won amounts into U.S. dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made in conformity with the basis stated in Note 2(a). Such U.S. dollar amounts are presented solely for the convenience of readers outside of the Republic of Korea.

Accounting principles and auditing standards and their application in practice vary among countries. The accompanying financial statements are not intended to present the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in countries other than the Republic of Korea. In addition, the procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to audit such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries. Accordingly, this report and the accompanying financial statements are for use by those knowledgeable about Korean accounting procedures and auditing standards and their application in practice.

NOTES TO NON-CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006

1.

GENERAL

SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in March 1984 under the laws of Korea to engage in providing nationwide cellular telephone communication services in the Republic of Korea. The Company’s common shares and depositary receipts (DRs) are listed on the Stock Market of Korea Exchange (formerly “Korea Stock Exchange”) and the New York and London Stock Exchanges, respectively. As of December 31, 2007, the Company’s total issued shares are held by the following:

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	The non-consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. The accompanying financial statements were approved by the Company’s board of directors on January 31, 2008. Significant accounting policies followed in preparing the accompanying financial statements are summarized as follows:

a.	Basis of Presentation
	The Company maintains its official accounting records in Korean won and prepares statutory non-consolidated financial statements in Korean language (Hangul) in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea (“Korean GAAP”). Certain accounting principles applied by the Company that conform with financial accounting standards and accounting principles in the Republic of Korea may not conform with accounting principles generally accepted in other countries. Accordingly, these financial statements are intended for use by those who are informed about Korean accounting principles and practices. The accompanying financial statements have been condensed, restructured and translated into English with certain expanded descriptions from the Korean language financial statements. Certain information included in the Korean language financial statements, but not required for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity or cash flows, is not presented in the accompanying financial statements.
	The accompanying financial statements are stated in Korean won, the currency of the country in which the Company is incorporated and operates. The translation of Korean won amounts into U.S. dollar amounts is included solely for the convenience of readers of financial statements and has been made at the rate of W935.80 to US$1.00, the Noon Buying Rate in the City of New York for cable transfers in Korean won as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the last business day of the period ended December 31, 2007. Such translations into U.S. dollars should not be construed as representations that the Korean won amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that or any other rate.

b.	Adoptions of New Statements of Korea Accounting Standards (“SKAS”)
	On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SKAS No. 11 and SKAS No. 21 through No. 23. The adoption of such accounting standards did not have an effect on the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and net income of the Company for the year then ended. Details of primary change due to such adoption of SKAS are as follows:
	Pursuant to adoption of SKAS No. 21, “Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements”, statement of changes in stockholders’ equity was prepared only for the year ended December 31, 2007 in accordance with the transitional provision of the above SKAS. Certain amounts classified as capital adjustments through 2006 are classified as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss); such amounts include unrealized gain/loss on available-for-sale securities, equity in capital adjustments of affiliates and gain/loss on valuation of derivative instruments. In addition, certain amounts classified as investment assets through 2006 are classified as other non-current assets; such amounts include long-term loans, guarantee deposits, long-term deposits and others. Earnings per share amounts, which were reported on a periodic basis, are reflected in the accompanying statements of income. The accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2006, which is comparatively presented, was reclassified in accordance with SKAS No. 21.
c.	Cash Equivalents
	Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments and short term financial instruments, which are readily convertible without significant transaction cost, do not have significant risk of changes in interest rates, and with original maturities of three months or less.
d.	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	Allowance for doubtful accounts is provided based on the estimated collectibility of individual accounts and historical bad debt experience.
e.	Inventories
	Inventories, which consist mainly of replacement units for wireless telecommunication facilities, supplies for sales promotion, and merchandise for e-commerce business are stated at the lower of cost or market value, with cost determined using the moving average method. The Company maintains perpetual inventory system, which is adjusted to physical inventory counts performed at year end. When the market value of inventories is less than the acquisition cost, the carrying amount is reduced to the market value and any difference is charged to current operations as operating expenses. There was no such loss for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

f.	Securities (Excluding securities accounted for using the equity method of accounting)
	Debt and equity securities are initially recorded at their acquisition costs (fair value of considerations paid) including incidental cost incurred in connection with acquisition of the related securities and classified into trading, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities depending on the acquisition purpose and nature.
	Trading securities are stated at fair value with gains or losses on valuation reflected in current operations.
	Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses on valuation of available-for-sale securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the unrealized gains or losses are reflected in net income when the securities are sold or if there is an objective evidence of impairment such as bankruptcy of investees. Equity securities are stated at acquisition cost if fair value cannot be reliably measured.
	Held-to-maturity securities are presented at acquisition cost after premiums or discounts are amortized or accreted, respectively. The Company recognizes write-downs resulting from declines in the fair value below its book value on the balance sheet date if there is objective evidence of impairment. The related write-downs are recorded in current operations as a loss on impairment of investment securities.
	Trading securities are presented in the current asset section of the balance sheet, and available-for-sales and held-to-maturity securities are presented in the current asset section of the balance sheet if their maturities are within one year; otherwise, such securities are recorded in the non-current section of the balance sheet.
g.	Equity Securities Accounted for Using the Equity Method
	Investment securities of affiliated companies, in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, are carried using the equity method of accounting, whereby the Company’s initial investment is recorded at cost and the carrying value is subsequently increased or decreased to reflect the Company’s portion of stockholders’ equity of the investee. Differences between the purchase cost and net asset fair value of the investee are amortized over 5 to 20 years using the straight-line method. When applying the equity method of accounting, unrealized inter-company gains and losses are eliminated (See Note 4). In addition, the Company provides for additional losses for those investments accounted for using the equity method that are reduced to zero to the extent that the Company has other investment assets related to the equity method investees.
	When the Company’s share of equity interest in the equity method investees increases as a result of capital transactions of the investees with (or without) consideration, the increase in the Company’s proportionate shares in the investees are treated as goodwill or negative goodwill and when the Company’s share of equity interest in the equity method investees decreases as a result of capital transactions of the investees with (or without) consideration, the decrease in the Company’s proportionate shares in the investees are accounted for as gain or loss on disposal. However, if equity method investees are subsidiaries, such differences in the Company’s proportionate shares in the investees are accounted for as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s stockholders’ equity.

	In translating the foreign currency statements of the Company’s foreign-based investees, the Company applies (a) the current rate of exchange at the balance sheet date to the investee’s balance sheet items (except historical rates applied for stockholders’ equity), and (b) the average rate for the current period for income statements items. After translating the balance sheet and income statements items as noted above, the Company’s portion of the amount after deducting the translated total liabilities from translated total assets and equity is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s stockholders’ equity.
h.	Troubled Debt Restructuring
	In case that contractual terms such as on the face amount, interest rate, or maturity should be changed to alleviate the debtor’s burdens in accordance with an agreement between the creditor and the debtor, initiation of corporate reorganization procedures under court trustee or under debtor’s management, the Company recognizes the restructured receivables at present value of the expected future cash flows discounted by the reasonable interest rate and amortizes the difference between face value and present value to interest income using the effective interest rate method.
i.	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major renewals and betterments, which prolong the useful life or enhance the value of assets, are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
	Depreciation is computed using the declining balance method (except for buildings and structures acquired on or after January 1, 1995 which are depreciated using the straight-line method) over the estimated useful lives (4-30 years) of the related assets (See Note 6).
	Interest expense and other financing charges for borrowings related to the manufacture or construction of property and equipment are charged to current operations as incurred.
j.	Intangible Assets
	Intangible assets are recorded at cost, less amortization computed using the straight-line method over 5 to 20 years. The amortization for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were W439,509 million and W366,516 million, respectively.

	With its application for a license to provide IMT 2000 service, the Company has a commitment to pay W1,300,000 million to the Ministry of Information Communication (“MIC”). W650,000 million was paid in March 2001 by SK IMT Co., Ltd. (a former subsidiary of the Company), which was merged into the Company on May 1, 2003, and the remainder is required to be paid over 10 years with an annual interest rate equal to the 3-year-maturity government bond rate minus 0.75% (4.56% as of December 31, 2007). The future payment obligations are W110,000 million (related present value discount: W681 million) in 2008, W130,000 million in 2009, W150,000 million in 2010 and W170,000 million in 2011. On December 4, 2001, SK IMT Co., Ltd. received the IMT 2000 license from MIC, and recorded the total license cost (measured at present value) as an intangible asset. As a result of the merger with SK IMT Co., Ltd., the Company acquired such IMT license of W1,259,253 million and assumed the related long-term payable with principal amount of W650,000 million on May 1, 2003 (the date of merger). Amortization of the IMT license commenced when the Company started its commercial IMT 2000 service in December 2003, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the IMT license which expires in December 2016. As of December 31, 2007, the present value discount related to the current portion and long-term portion of payments to be made to MIC totaled W681 million and W27,886 million, respectively.
k.	Impairment Losses
	When the recoverable amount of assets (that are not recorded at fair value) including investment assets (except for trading and available for sale investments in listed companies), property and equipment, and intangible assets is significantly less than the carrying value due to obsolescence, physical damage, decline in market value or other causes, the carrying value is reduced to the recoverable amount and any difference is charged to current operation as an impairment loss. The Company recorded such impairment loss of W 369 million and W 6,866 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
l.	Convertible Bonds
	The proceeds from issuance of convertible bonds are allocated between the conversion rights and the debt issued; and the portion allocable to the conversion rights is accounted for as capital surplus with a corresponding conversion right adjustment deducted from the related bonds. Such conversion right adjustment is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the redemption period of the convertible bonds. The portion allocable to the conversion rights is measured by deducting the present value of the debt at time of issuance from the gross proceeds from issuance of convertible bonds, with the present value of the debt being computed by discounting the expected future cash flows (including call premium, if any) using the effective interest rate applied to ordinary or straight debt of the Company at the issue date.
m.	Discounts on Bonds
	Discounts on bonds are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the redemption period of the bonds.

n.	Valuation of Long-term Payables
	Long-term payables resulting from long-term installment transactions are stated at the present value of the expected future cash flows. Imputed interest amounts are recorded in present value discount accounts which are deducted directly from the related nominal payable balances. Such imputed interest is included in operations using the effective interest rate method over the redemption period.
o.	Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
	The Company recognizes a provision when i) it has a present obligation as a result of a past event, ii) it is probable that a disbursement of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, and iii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation (See Note 24). When a possible range of loss in connection with a probable loss contingency as of the balance sheet date is estimable with reasonable certainty, and some amount within that range appears at the time to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the Company accrues such amount. When no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum in that range is recorded.
	The Company does not recognize the following contingent obligations as liabilities:

• Possible obligations related to past events, for which the existence of a liability can only be confirmed upon occurrence of uncertain future event or events outside the control of the Company.

• Present obligations arising out of past events or transactions, for which i) a disbursement of economic resources to fulfill such obligations is not probable or ii) a disbursement of economic resources is probable, but the related amount cannot be reasonably estimated.

	In addition, the Company does not recognize potential assets related to past events or transactions, for which the existence of an asset or future benefit can only be confirmed upon occurrence of uncertain future event or events outside the control of the Company.
p.	Accrued Severance Indemnities
	In accordance with the Company’s policy, all employees with more than one year of service are entitled to receive severance indemnities upon termination of their employment based on length of service and rate of pay. Accruals for severance indemnities are recorded to approximate the amount required to be paid if all employees were to terminate at the balance sheet date.
	The Company has deposits with insurance companies to fund the portion of the employees’ severance indemnities which is in excess of the tax deductible amount allowed under the Corporate Income Tax Law, in order to take advantage of the additional tax deductibility for such funding. Such deposits with outside insurance companies, where the beneficiaries are the Company’s employees, totaling W38,706 million and W23,895 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are deducted from accrued severance indemnities.
	In accordance with the Korean National Pension Fund Law, the Company transferred a portion of its accrued severance indemnities to the National Pension Fund through March 1999. Such transfers, amounting to W50 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are deducted from accrued severance indemnities.

	Actual payment of severance indemnities amounted to W6,005 million and W259,870 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
	Effective March 31, 2006, the Company changed its policy for the severance indemnities applicable to those employees who joined the Company before or on December 31, 2002 from cumulative method, where employees are entitled to get paid more than one month of salary each year depending on the length of service, to simple multiplier method, where employees are paid one month of salary each year regardless of their service period in accordance with the resolution of the Company’s joint labor-management conference held on March 16, 2006. As a result of such policy change, the Company distributed early settlements to those eligible employees on their accumulated severance indemnities as of December 31, 2006 on a mandatory basis. In addition, the Company paid the additional bonuses of W125,890 million for those employees who received the mandatory distribution for their early settlement as compensation for those employees. The Company recorded such settlements as compensation costs as special severance indemnities in other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, the Company executed the early retirement program and the related special bonus of W18,131 million were paid to eligible employees and accounted for as special severance indemnities in other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006.
q.	Accounting for Employee Stock Option Compensation Plan
	The Company adopted the fair value based method of accounting for its employee stock option compensation plan (See Note 16). Under the fair value based method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period. For stock options, fair value is determined using an option-pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, expected dividends and the current risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the option. However, as permitted under Korean GAAP, the Company excludes the volatility factor in estimating the value of its stock options granted before December 31, 2003, which results in measurement at minimum value. The total compensation cost of an option estimated at the grant date is not subsequently adjusted for changes in the price of the underlying stock or its volatility, the actual life of the option, dividends on the stock, or the risk-free interest rate. In addition, recognized compensation costs, related to stock options expired due to such stock options not being exercised within the exercisable period, are transferred to other capital surplus from capital adjustments (See Note 16).
r.	Accounting for Leases
	A lease is classified as a finance lease or an operating lease depending on the extent of transfer to the Company of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. If a lease meets any one of the following criteria, it is accounted for as a finance lease:

• The lease transfers ownership of the asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term;

• The lessee has the option to purchase the asset at a bargain price and it is certain that the option will be exercised;

• The lease term is for the major part (75% or more) of the economic life of the asset even if title is not transferred;

• At the date of lease commencement the present value of the minimum lease payments amounts to at least substantially all (90% or more) of the fair value of the leased asset; or

• The leased assets are of such a specialized nature that only the Company can use them without major modifications.

All other leases are treated as operating leases.

s.	Research and Development Costs
	The Company charges substantially all research and development costs to expense as incurred. The Company incurred internal research and development costs of W214,795 million and W211,752 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. In addition, external research and development costs were W73,725 million and W66,055 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
t.	Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation
	Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in Korean won based on the prevailing rate of exchange at the dates of transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into Korean won at the Base Rates announced by Seoul Money Brokerage Services, Ltd. on the balance sheet date, which were W938.20 and W929.60 to US$1.00 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The resulting gains or losses arising from the translation or settlement of such assets and liabilities are included in current operations.
u.	Derivative Instruments
	The Company records rights and obligations arising from derivative instruments as assets and liabilities, which are stated at fair value. The gains and losses that result from the change in the fair value of derivative instruments are reported in current earnings. However, for derivative instruments designated as hedging the exposure of variable cash flows, the effective portions of the gains or losses on the hedging instruments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and credited/charged to operations at the time the hedged transactions affect earnings, and the ineffective portions of the gains or losses are credited/charged immediately to operations.
v.	Revenue Recognition
	Operating revenue is recognized when cellular telephone communication and related services are provided.
w.	Income Tax
	Income tax expense is determined by adding or deducting the total income tax and surtaxes to be paid for the current period and the changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities.
	Deferred tax is recognized on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profits. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences with some exceptions and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets to be recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current based on the classification of related assets or liabilities for financial reporting purposes (See Note 17).

x.	Handset Subsidies to Long-term Mobile Subscribers
	Effective March 27, 2006, the Telecommunication Law of Korea was revised to allow wireless carriers to provide handset subsidies to customers who have maintained their wireless account with the same carrier for 18 months or longer and who have not received such subsidies within the last two years to acquire new or renewed customer relationships. The Company commenced its handset subsidy program on the effective date of the revised Telecommunications Law and included a clause in the service contract which allows the Company to change the terms of its subsidy program, including the Company’s ability to terminate the program at any time after a thirty day notice to its customers. The Company charges such handset subsidies to commissions paid as the related payments are made.
y.	Use of Estimates
	The Company’s management makes reasonable estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. These estimates and assumptions can change according to additional experiences, changes in circumstances, new information and other and could differ from actual results.
z.	Reclassifications
	Certain reclassifications have been made in prior period’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current period. Such reclassifications did not have an effect on the previously reported net assets as of December 31, 2006 and net income for the year then ended.

All of the above bonds will be paid in full at maturity.

On May 27, 2004, the Company issued zero coupon convertible bonds with a maturity of five years in the principal amount of US$329,450,000 for US$324,923,469, with an initial conversion price of W235,625 per share of the Company’s common stock, which was greater than market value at the date of issuance. Subsequently, the initial conversion price was changed to W211,099 per share in accordance with anti-dilution protection. The Company may redeem the principal amount after 3 years from the issuance date if the market price exceeds 130% of the conversion price during a predetermined period. On the other hand, the bond holders may redeem their notes at 103.81% of the principal amount on May 27, 2007 (3 years from the issuance date). The conversion right may be exercised during the period from July 7, 2004 to May 13, 2009 and the number of common shares to be converted as of December 31, 2007 is 1,277,164 shares. Effective July 1, 2007, the conversion price was changed from W211,943 to W211,099 and the number of shares to be converted was changed from 1,688,842 shares to 1,695,593 shares due to the payment of interim dividends in accordance with the resolution of the Company’s board of directors on July 27, 2007.

	Conversion of notes to common shares may be prohibited under the Telecommunications Law or other legal restrictions which restrains foreign governments, individuals and entities from owning more than 49% of the Company’s voting stock, if this 49% ownership limitation is violated due to the exercise of conversion rights. In this case, the Company will pay a bond holder as cash settlement determined at the average price of one day after a holder exercises its conversion right or the weighted average price for the following five business days. The Company intends to sell treasury shares held in trust by the Company that corresponds to the number of shares of common stock that would have been delivered in the absence of the 49% foreign shareholding restrictions. The Company entered into an agreement with Credit Suisse First Boston International to reduce the effect of fluctuation with respect to cash settlement payments that may be more or less than the proceeds from sales of treasury shares held in trust. Unless either previously redeemed or converted, the notes are redeemable at 106.43% of the principal amount at maturity.
	During the year ended December 31, 2006, the convertible bonds with a principal amount of US$25,210,000 were converted into 136,613 shares of treasury stock (See Note 15), and the principal amount of the convertible bonds decreased from US$329,450,000 to US$304,240,000. In addition, the consideration for conversion right (capital surplus) decreased by W3,733 million (net of tax effect of W1,416 million).
	During the year ended December 31, 2007, the conversion rights for the convertible bond with a principal amount of US$75,080,000 were exercised. The Company paid \42,962 million in cash to bond holders with a principal amount of US$36,260,000 without delivering the Company’s common stocks due to the 49% ownership limitation as explained above and the convertible bonds with a principal amount of US$38,820,000 were converted into 216,347 shares of treasury stock (See Note 15). Therefore, the principal amount of the convertible bonds decreased from US$304,240,000 to US$229,160,000. In addition, the consideration for conversion right (capital surplus) decreased by W11,116 million (net of tax effect of W4,216 million).

a.	Legal Reserve
	The Korean Commercial Code requires the Company to appropriate as a legal reserve at least 10% of cash dividends for each accounting period until the reserve equals 50% of outstanding capital stock. The legal reserve may not be utilized for cash dividends, but may only be used to offset a future deficit, if any, or may be transferred to capital stock.
b.	Reserve for Improvement of Financial Structure
	Through 2006, the Financial Control Regulation for Listed Companies in Korea required that at least 10% of net income (net of accumulated deficit), and an amount equal to net gain (net of related income tax, if any) on the disposal of property and equipment should be appropriated as a reserve for improvement of financial structure until the ratio of stockholders’ equity to total assets reached 30%. However, this regulation was abolished during the year ended December 31, 2007 and no such requirement exist as of December 31, 2007.

In addition, the Company acquired 8,584,445 shares of treasury stock in the market or through the trust funds for W2,040,995 million through 2005 in order to stabilize the market price of its stock. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2006, the convertible bonds with a principal amount of US$25,210,000 were converted into 136,163 shares of common stock. Such conversion was settled by the Company by using its treasury stock with carrying value totaling W32,178 million, which resulted in loss on disposal of treasury stock of W7,887 million. In addition, the losses on disposal of treasury stock decreased by W336 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 to reflect the change in accumulated temporary differences related to treasury stocks based on the prior year tax return.
	On August 17, 2006, the Company retired 491,000 shares of treasury stock, which were acquired by the Company during the period from August 1, 2006 through August 14, 2006 for W92,518 million in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors on July 28, 2006.

16.	STOCK OPTIONS
	On March 17, 2000, March 16, 2001 and March 8, 2002, in accordance with the approval of its stockholders or its board of directors, the Company granted stock options to its management, representing 17,800 shares at an exercise price of W424,000 per share, 43,820 shares at an exercise price of W211,000 per share and 65,730 shares at an exercise price of W267,000 per share. The stock options will become exercisable after three years from the date of grant and shall be exercisable for two years from the first exercisable date. Upon exercise of stock options, the Company will issue its common stock. If the employees leave the Company within three years after the grant of stock options, such employees forfeit their unvested stock options awarded. Stock options representing 530 shares for which total compensation cost was W3 million were forfeited during the year ended December 31, 2004.

The value of stock options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, without considering the volatility factor in estimating the value of its stock options, as permitted under Korean GAAP. The following assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of options granted in 2000, 2001 and 2002; risk-free interest rate of 9.1% for 2000, 5.9% for 2001 and 6.2% for 2002; expected life of three years for 2000, 2001 and 2002; expected dividend of W500 per share for 2000, 2001 and 2002. Under these assumptions, total compensation cost, the recognized compensation cost (included in labor cost) for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the outstanding balance of stock options in capital adjustment as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 are as follows (In millions of Korean won):

							Stock options in
	Total		Recognized				capital adjustment
	Compensation		compensation cost				December 31,		December 31,

	W	5,013	W	—	W	—	W	—	W	3,246

(note a)	During the year ended December 31, 2005, the exercisable period expired for stock options representing 17,800 shares, for which the Company had recognized compensation cost of W1,533 million. The related capital adjustment of W1,533 million was transferred to capital surplus.
(note b)	During the year ended December 31, 2006, the exercisable period expired for stock options representing 43,820 shares, for which the Company had recognized compensation cost of W234 million. The related capital adjustment of W234 million was transferred to capital surplus.
(note c)	During the year ended December 31, 2007, the exercisable period expired for stock options representing 65,730 shares, for which the Company had recognized compensation cost of W3,246 million. The related capital adjustment of W3,246 million was transferred to capital surplus.

If the Company had not excluded the volatility factor (expected volatility of 66.8% for options granted in 2000, 67.5% for options granted in 2001, and 63.0% for options granted in 2002), the pro forma total compensation cost would be W15,967 million (W3,738 million, W3,617 million and W8,613 million for options granted in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively) and the recognized compensation cost for the year ended December 31, 2007 would be nil, and the pro forma net income and net income per common share for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 are as follows:

Independent Accountant’s Review Report
on Internal Accounting Control System (“IACS”)

English Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Korean

To the Representative Director of
SK Telecom Co., Ltd.

We have reviewed the accompanying Report on the Management’s Assessment of IACS (the “Management’s Report”) of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007. The Management’s Report, and the design and operation of IACS are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to review the Management’s Report and issue a review report based on our procedures. The Company’s management stated in the accompanying Management’s Report that “based on the assessment of the IACS as of December 31, 2007, the Company’s IACS has been appropriately designed and is operating effectively as of December 31, 2007, 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 Management’s Report in all material respects. A review includes obtaining an understanding of a company’s IACS and making inquiries regarding the Management’s Report and, when deemed necessary, performing a limited inspection of underlying documents and other limited procedures.

A company’s 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea, 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 Management’s 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 Company’s IACS as of December 31, 2007, and we did not review its IACS subsequent to December 31, 2007. 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.
