Item 17 Item 18 X ------ -------- EXPLANATORY NOTE This Amendment No. 1 to our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2005 (the "2004 Form 20-F"), is being filed to add to Item 18 the audit report of Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers, an independent registered public accounting firm, with respect to our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2002 and 2003 and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003. Such audit report was inadvertently omitted from the 2004 Form 20-F. Our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 were audited by Deloitte HanaAnjin LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm. The report of Deloitte HanaAnjin LLC on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 was filed with the 2004 Form 20-F. This Amendment No. 1 continues to speak as of the date of the original filing of the 2004 Form 20-F and does not purport to amend, update or restate (other than as described above) the information contained in the 2004 Form 20-F filed on July 15, 2005 or reflect any events that have occurred after the 2004 Form 20-F was filed. ITEM 18 -- FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Trustee and Stockholders of Korea Thrunet Co., Ltd.: In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Korea Thrunet Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") at December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of the Company's operations and realization of its assets and payment of its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, on March 3, 2003, the Company filed a voluntary petition for corporate reorganization, under the Korean Corporate Reorganization Act, which was approved by the Court on June 25, 2003. On January 9, 2004, the Company's reorganization plan was accepted by its creditors and equity committees, and confirmed by the Court. As a result, the receiver is now responsible for the implementation of the reorganization plan. While these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers Seoul, Korea March 19, 2004 ITEM 19 -- EXHIBITS Documents filed as exhibits to this annual report:
