Opening of North Korean Broadcasting System
Yoon Suk Yeol The "opening of North Korean broadcasting," which the government had been pushing for as part of its North Korea policy, is in place in the face of practical difficulties, including the revision of the law. Unlike the conservative administration, which has been comparable to sanctions and pressure, it has ambitiously advocated "openness," but some say it has virtually lost its momentum as the strong-to-strong confrontation between the two Koreas continues.
A Unification Ministry official said on the 9th, "We are trying to form a consensus among the people and collecting opinions from experts from all walks of life," adding, "We will push ahead with the current law as much as possible." This reaffirms the existing policy implementation policy, which is interpreted as meaning that no progress has been made six months since it was first mentioned in the Unification Ministry's work report in July last year.
President Yoon Suk Yeol has pledged to open up North Korean broadcasting as one of his presidential pledges. Even now, if you pay to install a satellite receiver, you can watch North Korea's satellite broadcasting, but the plan is to make it possible to watch North Korean broadcasting on regular TV without a separate receiver. Unification Minister Kwon Young-se suggested "restoring ethnic homogeneity through openness and communication" as one of the five key tasks of unification policy in his first report since the government's inauguration, and specified opening of North Korean broadcasting as a detailed plan.
