And this just in less than an hour ago,... The website of major Korean telecommunications
company KT Telecom was found to have been hacked,... compromising the personal data
of 12-million clients, including their resident registration numbers and bank account numbers.
That's the majority of the telecom's 16-million clients.
The Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency has reportedly arrested two people suspected of
hacking the system and selling the data for 10-point-8 million U.S. dollars.
KT Telecom has yet to confirm the report. We will bring you more updates in later newscasts
as the story develops.
