KEPCO is taking advantage of it's experience and has been knocking on the door of the overseas market since 1993. Success could be seen in the power generator in Philippines and other nations, and also the accomplishment of the successful first project of transmission part, Myanmar Power System Analysis.

In connection with that, this paper is trying to find a cooperation system between KEPCO and domestic companies, and an effective project management method.
