Seoul, Korea, July 30, 2012 — SK Planet announced today that T Map, its real-time navigation service platform, will offer real-time
arrival information and route maps of 215 different lines of town buses in Seoul. With the addition of this feature, T Map’s public
transport route planner will provide real-time arrival information for all buses in Seoul. T Map has been offering real-time arrival
information of Seoul buses including the wide area line, main line, branch line and circular line buses since April 2012.
 
Customers can use T Map to find the optimal route to destinations using mass transit through a one-stop search that
recommends routes combining buses and subways.
 
“T Map, used by 1.46 million customers, has become a one-stop location-based information service that not only offers
navigation service for drivers, but also information on public transport and nearby areas,” said Kim Jang-wook, SK Planet’s
Head of Open Social Business Unit. “We are committed to making all-out-efforts to develop innovative services that can
deliver greater value and convenience to our customers.” 
 
Meanwhile, customers will be able to experience T Map’s newly added feature by downloading the latest version of T Map
(T Map 3.2.7) and going forward, the company plans to expand the real-time bus arrival information feature to include buses
in non-Seoul areas as well.
 
T Map can be downloaded from SK Planet’s T Store, Google Play and Apple’s App Store, and can be installed and used on
both Android and iOS devices regardless of mobile service provider.
