---

As previously set forth in the report on Form 6-K filed with the Commission on October 12, 2011, Korea Electric Power Corporation (“KEPCO”) originally planned to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders on October 31, 2011 for the nomination of a non-standing director as a member of the Audit Committee. However, as KEPCO requires additional time to finalize the candidate for this position, it will postpone the shareholders’ meeting to a future date to be announced in a report on Form 6-K.

This amended report on Form 6-K replaces the reports on Form 6-K filed with the Commission on October 12, 2011 in its entirety.
