Customers who newly subscribe to SKT’s mobile service and SKT’s existing customers who switch their mobile devices will be able to sign up for the new plans at SKT’s official online mall, T Direct Shop.

“SKT will focus on introducing diverse types of new mobile plans to meet customers’ needs and social trends,” said Han Myung-jin, Vice President and Head of Marketing Group of SK Telecom.
