Although WiBro services launches well, limited types of Handset, narrow coverages and less various contents limit the growing Wibro services. and this leads low investment in WiBro network 2007: MNO enlarges it’s coverage for booming HSPDA service, various contents is provides by Contents provider who allied with MNOs. This leads the supply of various types of Handset and data use increase, Although WiBro service carriers enlarges coverage, the coverage still narrower than MNO’s. Because of this, only small subscribers churn into WiBro Market, limited contents still provides. 2008: MNO cuts DATA prices and offers fixed charge for data service.
