SKT Improves Baro Plan... Half-Price Discount for Three Months

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] SK Telecom announced on the 30th that it will enhance the benefits of its roaming product 'baro Plan' starting June 1st, in line with the increase in overseas travel, and offer a 50% discount for the first three months to first-time roaming customers.

The baro Plan allows customers to choose from 3, 4, or 7GB of data according to their needs, and offers free usage of baro calls as well as texts (SMS·MMS), along with special travel benefits.

The number of partner countries has expanded to 187 worldwide, an increase of 61 countries compared to before. The prices and usage periods remain the same as the existing baro 3·4·7GB plans: 29,000 KRW (for 7 days), 39,000 KRW (for 30 days), and 59,000 KRW (for 30 days), respectively.

Customers subscribed to the plan can easily select the desired data capacity for their next trip without needing to re-subscribe to the roaming plan. In particular, plan customers can receive special travel benefits every month for free, such as Carrot Insurance's 'Overseas Traveler Insurance 30% Coupon' (up to 10,000 KRW benefit), Shinsegae Duty Free's duty-free benefits worth up to 1.1 million KRW, and Hana Tour's 'Travel Trend' webzine.

To commemorate the upgrade of the 'baro Plan,' SKT will run a 'First Roaming Promotion' until August 31st, offering a 50% discount on the baro Plan for customers who are using roaming for the first time or who have not used a roaming plan in the past five years. Additionally, during this period, the overseas traveler insurance coupon benefit will be increased from 30% to 50% (up to 15,000 KRW benefit).
