In October SK Telecom began a rollout of 1X in Korea. It took them 9 months to get to 370K subscribers, though momentum by that time was strong and the 10th month (July 2001) they added 240K more for a total of 610K.

John Biddle, remember that for awhile SK Telecom was not allowed to gain users. They were required by the government to go below 50% market share for like one month or something. During this time, they couldn't really promote their service because they needed to lose share.
