SK Telecom announced that ahead of the official launch of the ‘0 Youth Plan’ on June 1, it will hold a ‘100% Winning World Currency Random Draw’ event from the 15th to the 31st for the first 300,000 participants who sign up for advance notifications.


The ‘0 (Zero) Youth Plan’ is a customized 5G plan for customers aged 34 and under. SKT explained that this event was prepared to attract the interest and participation of the main target group, young people, before releasing the plan.

Participating in the event is simple. By accessing the event page through the T World or T Membership banners and verifying that they are 34 years old or younger (born after June 1, 1988), customers can apply for advance notification and simultaneously join the ‘roulette’ event where they receive a random world currency.


When the customer presses the ‘Start’ button on the screen, one of ten world currencies (United States, European Union, Japan, India, Hong Kong, Mexico, South Africa, Czech Republic, Thailand, United Arab Emirates) and one of the numbers 10, 20, or 30 is selected. For example, if the Euro (EU) and the number 20 are selected, the participant receives 20 euros. Considering exchange rates, the maximum prize is 30 euros (approximately 44,000 KRW).


The winning amount will be converted based on the Naver exchange rate as of May 2 and delivered uniformly in the form of a Naver Pay point coupon on June 1, when the 0 Youth Plan is launched.


An SKT official said, “We maximized the fun element of the event so that all participants can enjoy the joy of winning without any ‘losing’ outcomes,” adding, “Anyone aged 34 or younger can participate regardless of whether they use SKT or not.”


Customers who complete the advance notification application and event participation will receive a text message on June 1 with information about the launch and subscription method of the 0 Youth Plan.


Meanwhile, SKT will release seven types of the ‘0 Youth Plan’ for 5G customers aged 34 and under on June 1. On July 1, four types of the ‘0 Youth Customized Plan’ will also be launched. To allow young customers to use data sufficiently, the basic data allowance will be increased by 20-50% compared to general plans. Additionally, seven types of the online-only plan ‘0 Youth Direct Plan,’ which is about 30% cheaper in monthly fees, will be launched. Customers can subscribe through SKT’s online-only channel, T Direct Shop.


Furthermore, all customers using the 0 Youth Plan will receive benefits such as discounts on coffee, movies, and roaming fees regardless of their monthly fee level. The same benefits apply even if customers change their plan without purchasing a new device. Various promotions are also being prepared for early subscribers of the 0 Youth Plan and 0 Youth Direct Plan.



Kim Ji-hyung, head of SKT’s Integrated Marketing Strategy, said, “The 0 Youth Plan is a new rate system designed considering the lifestyle and usage patterns of young people aged 34 and under,” adding, “We plan to introduce more diverse discount benefits and promotions in line with the launch of this plan.”
