REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Participants and Administrator of
the Amkor Technology, Inc., 401(K) Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Amkor Technology, Inc., 401(K) Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 2002 and
2001, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended
December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which 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
audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of Nonexempt
Transactions and Assets Held at End of Year are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC. 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2002

(1)      DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Amkor Technology, Inc., 401(K) Plan
(the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer
to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all
employees of Amkor Technology, Inc. (the Employer). The Plan is
intended to comply with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the IRC) and the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).

ADMINISTRATION

Under ERISA, the Employer is the designated administrator of the Plan.
The Employer has contracted with Fidelity Management Trust Company
(Fidelity Trust) and its affiliates to maintain participants' Plan
accounts and to provide certain other recordkeeping and administrative
services for the Plan, and with Fidelity Trust to act as the Plan's
trustee.

CONTRIBUTIONS

Participants may elect to defer up to 60% of their eligible
compensation (as defined in the Plan) each year, subject to IRC limits.
Participants may also rollover to the Plan amounts representing
eligible distributions from other qualified plans.

Each plan year, the Employer contributes non-discretionary matching
contributions in an amount equal to 75% of each eligible participant's
deferral contributions to the Plan, not to exceed the lesser of $6,000
or 16% of the participant's eligible compensation. Plan participants
must complete one year of service to be eligible for Employer matching
contributions. The Employer also may make additional matching Employer
contributions of a percent, if any, to be determined annually based on
a percentage of eligible participants' deferral contributions.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's deferral
contributions, any qualified rollover contributions and allocations of
(a) any Employer matching contributions and (b) Plan earnings or
losses, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses, if
applicable. Allocations of Plan earnings or losses are based on
participant account balances. The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the balance of the participant's vested account.

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual
earnings (if any) thereon. Vesting in the Employer's matching
contribution portion of their accounts plus actual earnings (if any)
thereon is based on

F4

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC. 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2002

participants' years of credited service. A participant is 34% vested
after one year of credited service, 67% vested after two years of
credited service and 100 percent vested after three years of credited
service.

Active participants will become fully vested in the Employer's matching
contribution portion of their accounts if they reach normal retirement
age (age 65), become disabled (as defined in the Plan), or die.

FORFEITURES

At December 31, 2002 and 2001, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled
$133,559 and $123,382, respectively, and are available to reduce the
Employer's cost of future matching contributions. In 2002, the Employer
did not use forfeited nonvested accounts to reduce its matching
contributions.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

On termination of service, a participant generally may elect to leave
his or her account balance in the Plan or receive a lump-sum
distribution of his or her vested account balance. If a terminated
participant's vested account balance is $5,000 or less, a lump sum
distribution of the participant's vested account balance automatically
will be made without his or her consent.

INVESTMENT OPTIONS

Assets of the Plan are held by Fidelity Trust and are invested in the
investment options available under the Plan based on instructions
received from Plan participants. The Plan offers a number of options
for the investment of participants' Plan accounts, including various
mutual funds, an open-ended commingled pool sponsored by Fidelity Trust
and, effective January 1, 2002, an Employer common stock fund.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Plan's administrative expenses are payable from Plan assets unless
paid by the Employer, as provided by the Plan document. During 2002,
administrative expenses of the Plan paid by the Employer amounted to
approximately $35,100.

(2)      SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRESENTATION

The financial statements of the Plan are presented on the accrual basis
of accounting.

ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets
available for plan benefits and changes therein. Accordingly, actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are
recorded on the ex-dividend date.

F5

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC. 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2002

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

As described in Note 1, the Plan provides participants with various
investment options. Such investments are exposed to various risks, such
as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk
associated with certain investments and the level of uncertainty
related to changes in the value of certain investments, it is at least
reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would
materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts
reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

(3)      PARTICIPANT LOANS RECEIVABLE

Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 (less their highest outstanding
loan balance during the prior 12 months) or 50 percent of their vested
account balance. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from)
the investment fund from (to) the Participant Loan Fund. Loan terms
range from 1-5 years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary
residence. The loans are secured by the vested balance in the
participant's account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with
local prevailing market rates. Outstanding loans at December 31, 2002
carry interest rates ranging from 6% to 10.67%. Principal and interest
generally are paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions. Loans
are payable in full upon a participant's termination of employment with
the Employer.

(4)      PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any interest to do so, the Employer has
the right under the Plan to terminate or modify the Plan at any time
and for any reason, subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of
Plan termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their
accounts.

(5)      TAX STATUS

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on December 5, 2001,
in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then
designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
IRC. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter
to bring it into compliance with applicable law and to make other
desired changes. The Plan administrator believes that the Plan
continues to be designed and is being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no provision for income
taxes has been included in the Plan's financial statements.

(7)      RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain Plan investments are managed by Fidelity Trust, the Plan's
trustee, or an affiliate of Fidelity Trust. Any purchases and sales
of these funds are performed in the open market at fair value. Such
transactions, while considered to be party-in-interest transactions
under ERISA, are permitted under the provisions of the Plan and are
specifically exempt from the prohibition of party-in-interest
transactions under ERISA.

During 2002, the Plan paid $35,074 to Fidelity for administrative
expenses.

As allowed by the Plan, participants may elect to invest their accounts
in the Amkor Technology, Inc. Stock Fund (the Stock Fund), which
invests solely in shares of the Employer's common stock. Investments in
the Stock Fund are at the direction of the Plan participants. The
shares of Amkor Technology, Inc. common stock are traded in the open
market. Participants purchased 367,969 shares at a cost of $1,552,716
in 2002.
