[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] KT is offering customers who purchase smartphones such as Samsung Electronics' 'Galaxy Z Flip' through its official online shopping mall, 'KT Shop,' a chance to win Apple 'AirPods 2' wireless earphones, air purifiers, and more through a lottery.

KT announced on the 17th that customers who purchase smartphones on KT Shop and subscribe to the wired and wireless bundled product ‘Premium Family Bundle’ (offering up to 50% discount for 2 to 5 lines) will be entered into a lottery where 1,500 winners will receive a ‘Kakao Friends Air Purifier.’ For the 'Y Generation' celebrating graduation and entrance seasons, customers who choose the ‘Y’ plan (for those aged 29 and under) and activate their line will receive a set of 5 popular Kakao emoticons on a first-come, first-served basis for up to 1,000 people.

For young children starting a new semester (aged 12 and under), KT offers a monthly discount of up to 11,000 KRW on fees (for a total of 6 months). All customers who activate their line with the ‘Y Junior 19.8 Plan’ on KT Shop will receive ‘Line Friends Bluetooth Earphones.’ Additionally, the first 100 customers will be given the popular Bluetooth earphones ‘AirPods 2.’ For 100 customers purchasing phones for their parents as a filial piety phone, KT will provide Jeonggwanjang Hong Sam Won (red ginseng extract) and KF94 health masks.

The '5 PM Hot Deal' event held every Tuesday and Thursday on KT Shop will continue steadily. On the 18th, hand sanitizers for personal hygiene will be offered, and on the 20th, ‘Yeo Esther Probiotics Blue’ and ‘Vita 500’ for immune system enhancement will be prepared. A special exhibition for ‘KT Premium Certified Used Phones’ aimed at reasonable smartphone purchases will also be held from the 18th to the 29th.

Ko Choong-rim, Head of KT’s Strategic Channel Support Division (Executive Director), said, “This event was prepared to ensure that customers who refrain from going out due to COVID-19 do not experience inconvenience when purchasing smartphones. We will continue to develop various online services and enhance benefits from the customer’s perspective.”
