SK Telecom's 2019 consolidated revenue was KRW 17.7437 trillion, a 5.2% increase compared to the previous year, while operating profit decreased by 7.6% to KRW 1.11 trillion. Although revenue increased due to the expansion of 5G subscribers and growth in the media business, the large-scale 5G investment burden and marketing costs negatively impacted operating profit. Net profit was limited to KRW 861.9 billion, a 72.5% decrease influenced by equity-method gains from SK Hynix.
