Nokia is reportedly reentering the Korean market it once abandoned. An official at SK Telecom, said that it is negotiating with the Finnish giant on supplying handsets, and Nokia phones could be on sale in SK Telecom stores by the end of the year.
At the moment, South Korean mobile phone market is dominated by four handset makers — Samsung, LG, Pantech, and Motorola — and Nokia's return is prone to cause a great upheaval.
Nokia first entered the Korean market in 2001, but withdrew in January 2003 after a difficult struggle.
