Trying to figure out what this part means

"Hanaro Telecom, bidding for a cdma2000 license, has complained that the operator would be unable to see profits if KT and SKT launch the MC1X
service. According to Hanaro, KT and SKT can provide MC1X service using the same frequency bands they use for narrowband services, thereby
attract at least 10 million new subscribers. "

So Hanaro is worried that KT and SKT can allow roaming between MC1x and their W-CDMA stuff in the 5 mhz band? Or are they saying that they are worried that they can just provide MC1X within the "new spectrum" and
not use W-CDMA at all? I guess it depends on what "using the same frequency bands they use for narrowband services" means.

Will we see a speed-limit imposed on the Korean landscape?
Will we see one CDMA2000 plus one *additional* WCDMA operator?
