[Digital Times, Kang Eun-seong] The PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games are only about 45 days away, with KT, the main carrier of the Olympics, and SK Telecom, a competitor, fighting in the pipeline. The two sides are pretending to be "false facts" and sending out proofs of their contents and making legal complaints.

SK Telecom has recently revealed that it has recently submitted a certificate requesting restoration of KT`s pipeline and manhole facilities, which were buried near the cross-country stadium of the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

KT has revealed that SK Telecom occupied KT`s essential facilities unauthorizedly at the entrance of Alpensia C - entrance of ski jump zone, entrance of 700GC - entrance of ski jump zone, He said.

Meanwhile, KT has accused the prosecution of the fact that SK Telecom has infiltrated the inside of KT`s own internal pipeline to the Olympic Organizing Committee, which is entering the International Broadcasting Center (IBC) and inserted its fiber-optic cable. Since then, KT has surveyed about 1,000 km of the Olympic network. As a result, KT has found additional SK Telecom facilities without any prior consultation.

As a result of direct coverage of the controversial facility area of Pyeongchang 700GC, we could confirm that the cable that ran through Jeonju to the relevant area was connected to the ground where the pipeline came down in front of 700GC. However, it was difficult to distinguish whether the cable was SK Telecom or not, but the manhole that covered the underground pipeline had a KT logo.

A KT representative said, "KT is the host of the Olympic Games, and is responsible for the entire broadcast and communication service of the Olympic Games. If the obstacle occurs, the penalty is also astronomical," said KT. "We have to pay a penalty of 5 billion won to get the job done, so we are getting nervous about managing the network. The situation is that the carrier of the same country is damaging and neglecting the network unauthorizedly, which seriously affects our national interests." did.

SK Telecom, in this regard, did not hide the unpleasant expression. SK Telecom has said that KT will distribute false facts, and will respond to legal defamation by defamation. A SK Telecom official said, "Even if the IBC debate has already begun, it is controversial that SK Telecom`s optical cable directly damaged KT`s internal structure. However, raising the public`s sake before the national Olympic Games (Winter Olympics) "But KT said that it does not have anything to do with SK Telecom, and there is no evidence that we have done so," he said. The official said, "In particular, KT, KT, the organizers and SK Telecom have visited the area where the investigation was conducted," said KT where Kangwon Province ordered KT to "evacuate immediately".

The two sides agreed on November 20 that SK Telecom agreed to relocate SK Telecom`s fiber-optic cable, which is controversial as a result of negotiations between Kangwon Development Corporation, KT and SK Telecom. However, the organizers do not specify exactly where they are, so the mudfight between the two sides continues.
