Youth Suicide Prompts Mobile Phone Max-Pay System
Feb 28, 06 11:20 PM PDT
After a 16-year-old boy committed suicide for racking up a 3.7 million won bill playing mobile games on his phone, mobile service providers in Korea plan to offer unlimited Internet services for a fixed rate. SK Telecom will allow users to pay a maximum of 30,000 won for unlimited access while KTF's maximum pay limit will be set at 26,000 won. Korea faces this problem as many, especially teens, lack foresight and over-spend on their phone usage.
